Now in a bowl take the butter and sugar,whisk in a hand blender or whisker until it becomes creamy and smooth.Now to this mixture add in the 1/2 cup of milk.Add add 1/2 of the flour and mix it well.

Then add the remaining portion of the flour and mix it well.Pour the batter into greased pan. Keep it in the preheated oven.Bake it for 30-35 minutes(mine took 34 minutes) or until a tooth pick comes out clean.Let it rest it for couple of minutes and invert the cake to a wire rack and allow it to cool completely.

The sweetness was just perfect with the given measurement.
Slice the cake once its completely cool down.
Here I sprinkled the powdered sugar and did not use any vanilla extract as I used the vanilla custard powder.
