I’m sorry I’m writing this under the pin but I was so afraid you weren’t going to see my comment 😭 I was wondering can you replace the yogurt with buttermilk ? Or is yogurt required in this recipe. Thank you so much.
Had to come back to tell everyone to MAKE THIS RECIPE RIGHT NOW!! Not only was it easy, but it was so amazingly fluffy and delicious. I made it for my Godson’s bday party and it was a huge hit!!!
Y’all, OMG I made this cake yesterday for a co-workers bday, and everyone came and complimented me on this cake. It was so dang easy to make, I followed every step and used exactly what she used…it was so moist and the flavor was soooooo amazing.
@LaToya L I can't wait to try this...hope it turns out just as good as yours did. I have pure vanilla extract on hand so I will use that for now but will try with the imitation like she suggested the nxt time to see if I can tell the difference.
Girl the Lord sent a message to you for me cause honey I been hoping that you post a vanilla cake recipe. Your pound cake recipes are AMAZING! I try to manipulate them for a regular vanilla cake but it's just not right, still delicious but not exact... Thank you so much! I will be trying this soon! I'm so happy I found your channel recently ❤.. your the bomb!
GIRRRRRRRL !!!!! This did not disappoint !!!!!!!!! I recommend trying this !!! I’ve been baking for 2 years now and till now I can say I found a MOIST and delicious vanilla cake!!! THANK YOU !!

I needed this recipe from you as well. It's a few recipes that I needed from you. I'm so happy you posted this. We definitely all need a classic vanilla cake. I can't wait to try your vanilla cake recipe. Im so happy you didn't use a chocolate frosting for this cake. Thanks so much sista!
Girl you always doing yo thing. I love how you have your videos short and sweet at the same time thorough. I made that 7 up pound cake twice,it was so so good. Thanks hun and Happy New Year!
Omg I am READY for this recipe! Been making your chocolate cakes for YEARS and can’t wait for a vanilla version to fill my life with even more cake-y joy ❤️

I had no idea you had a cookbook! I have to buy it. Your chocolate cake is absolutely divine so I know I have to try this recipe and pretty much every recipe on ur cookbook!!
Girl, I do love every one of your recipes that I've tried!! I'm as southern as I can be (eastern NC), but I could take or leave collards and turnip greens were a yuck to me. Then I tried your way......whoa, Mama!! Now I love to cook greens!!! Thank you, thank you, Monique!!! 💞
Wooow.. Vanilla cake is so fluffy.. I like, I will try at home, I like when you get sprinkel on your cake.. Amazing.. Thanks for sharing your recipe☺☺ is the best👍💯
Se mira delicioso como todas tus recetas Amo tu red velvet es sabroso y húmedo igual que el carrot cake húmedo y delicioso ☺️ Muchas gracias Dios te llene de muchas bendiciones también me encanta la buena energía que transmites 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰
I find imitation vanilla to be flavorless but it’s your opinion so it is what it is, but for me after I purchased a really high quality pure Vanilla in Mexico on a cruise a few years ago. I never went back to imitation vanilla. Not all vanilla are equal but if you get really good vanilla it should taste better.
This looks really delicious! It’s definitely going on my list of foods to make. I will have to slightly modify for my families dietary restrictions but I think it will still turn out really nicely. Thank you for sharing it. Your video quality and presentation makes it look easy to make. I appreciate that. I make cooking videos too. I’m so lucky to be able to learn from talented creators like you! I wish you much success in 2022!!
Girl!! I made a whole ass homemade cake! Lmaoo and it actually came out good! Lmao🤣🤣🤣🤣 cake so fluffy! Now im a cook not a baker so this is a real win for me lmao. Thank you girl for this recipe, my grandmama smilin down on my like "Damn, she finally got it right!"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️🤷🏽♀️ Grateful! Lol 🙌🏾👏🏾 oh and I replaced the milk and yogurt with some macadamia milk with a little lime to make it more buttermilk like i guess but 1.5 cups. Still came out good👍🏾
Hey Diva, I just came here to send you millions time love hearts ♥️ for sharing your amazing vanilla cake recipe. I was requested to make heart shape vanilla cake. Sharing details below to help others. I used 8 inch round pan and cut sides and moulded into heart shape easily. I made few tweaks. Used margarine instead of shortening. Cut 25% sugar as I used Swiss meringue buttercream (SMBC) and wanted my cake to taste balanced as I hate over sweet cakes. Guess what it tasted heavenly with (sugar geek show’s easy buttercream recipe using pasteurised egg whites). I also baked a week in advance and freeze them. I had no issues with it. I also used whole eggs as I didn’t know that I will making SMBC using pasteurised egg whites. Next time I will add egg whites to keep my cake lighter in colour. This recipe can easily work fine with whole eggs. Again thank you for giving base recipe, Sending so much love on your way ♥️
I’ve been looking for a good vanilla cake recipe. I always use my pound cake recipe for my layers because it’s so light and delicious. But I’m definitely trying this because the texture looks like what I want. Most vanilla cake recipes have box cake texture and I hate that!
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! If I don’t have access to butter flavored shortening 😢Is it better to substitute with regular shortening or with unsalted butter? Thank youuu ❤
Se ve delicioso 🤤 gracias por compartir., solo la manteca con sabor a mantequilla, se puede sustituir solo por mantequilla ? No se donde encontrar manteca con sabor a mantequilla?
I remember back in the day you were taking cake decorating classes to perfect your skillz. 💖👸🏽🤗 And I wear Jergens it smells sooo good but you’re right I don’t want to eat it! Luv this updated recipe. Hugzz
Omg yesss! I cannot wait to try this 😋 looks oh so yummy. I’ve never successfully made a homemade vanilla cake before, but your pound cakes (made 3 of them thus far) have given me hope that I can bake cakes from scratch without relying on a box cake.🙏🏾😂
Update: I officially baked this cake last Friday and it came out way better than I expected!!! The flavor and the moisture that was held in this cake was to die for 🥲 I ran out of almond extract so I just added a bit more vanilla. My family loved this cake and as of today it’s finished. Thank you for sharing this recipe 🙏🏾 I’m so happy knowing that I’m able to bake a vanilla cake from SCRATCH!😭🙌🏾
I've tried your red velvet your lemon velvet n it's my go to recipes but I felt your chocolate cake wasn't as great as these two but I'm anxious to try your vanilla after the Easter...
I love the simplicity to this recipe! I have been baking for 15 years and still haven’t found a simple vanilla recipe that I find perfect. I’m definitely trying this today. I’m not a fan of shortening however, could I use butter? And also, could I use white shortening or f I’m going for a pure white cake? Thank you so much. 😁
Girl, you have yet to disappoint! This was SOOOO PERFECT 😩👌🏽♥️ Made this for my birthday cake 🎂 in July (totally forgot to come back and comment 😅) and I'm making it again today! Just perfect 🥰👏🏽
