Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Melt butter in a 9-inch cast iron skillet over low heat. Transfer 1/2 of the melted butter to a mixing bowl, leaving remaining butter in the skillet.

  3. Add sugar to the mixing bowl and beat with the melted butter until well blended. Add egg and mix until well beaten. Mix in flour and vanilla. Add milk, 2 tablespoons at a time, until mixture is the consistency of pancake batter. Pour batter into the skillet.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the stovetop.

Recipe Yield

1 9-inch skillet cake

Recipe Note

This recipe was given to me by a friend years ago and she told me she used it for her strawberry shortcake. It is absolutely heavenly and my niece loves to eat it plain. It is just a good basic recipe--only your imagination limits what you can do with it. It is just a good ole southern recipe and super simple. Awesome with fresh strawberries.
