I created this cake several years ago and haven't made it for ages. The ratios look a bit dodgy to me, but I'm keeping it here for now as I've had at least one email saying how lovely and light their cake turned out. If I were to make a vanilla cake now, I'd use the lemon cake recipe as I know that always turns out well, but using 2 tsp of vanilla extract in place of any lemony things.
