Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease three 8x4-inch loaf pans, then line with parchment paper.
- Cream together sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Beat in flour alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour, until just combined. Do not overmix. Divide batter evenly among prepared loaf pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 70 minutes.
- Run a small knife around the edges of each pan. Allow cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then invert, peel off the parchment, and cool completely on wire racks.
