Ingredients
For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup of milk
- 1/2 cup of your favorite jam
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream, chilled
Instructions
To make the cake, start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan and set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients in two batches, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting.
To assemble the cake, spread the jam on the top of one of the cake layers. Whip the cream until it forms stiff peaks, then spread it evenly on top of the jam. Place the second cake layer on top of the cream and press lightly. Dust with powdered sugar and serve.
