Instructions

Adjust an oven rack to the middle position. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and ﬂour a 12-cup tube pan or Bundt pan.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the milk and vanilla and heat until small bubbles form around the outside of the pan and the mixture is very hot but not boiling, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low.
Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer ﬁtted with the whisk attachment, combine the eggs and sugar and beat on medium-high speed for 5 minutes.
In a separate medium bowl, sift together the ﬂour, baking powder, and salt.
Once the egg and sugar mixture has tripled in volume, slowly add the hot milk mixture, mixing on low speed until incorporated. Add the ﬂour mixture in two batches, mixing after each addition until just incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour, checking 5 minutes prior to the baking end time. A toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake should come out clean with just a few crumbs attached; do not overbake.
Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack or serving plate to cool completely. Cut into slices and serve with confectioners’ sugar and raspberries.
