Baking my first cake. Got a newbie question.

I took the recipe off youtube. So I didn't know what butter milk was and I put regular 3,5% milk. Also it said that you need to pre-heat the oven at 350 degrees and bake for 30-35 minutes, but my oven doesn't go past 250.
So do I bake it longer to make it good? about how long? Also is the milk going to make much of a difference?

EDIT: Holy shiiiiii.. I just realized that 350 degrees could've been Fahrenheit, not celsius x.x

I just looked, it was 176 celsius, damn

One of the differences between buttermilk and regular milk is the fat content. There mau also be a bit od a taste diffrence as well. There is a way of substituting for bettermilk but not sure what it is but you should be able to find it online.

@MasterDvdC if I added regular butter in it, would it work? I have some in the fridge and a second batch coming.

Doubtful. Buttermilk is the liquid left over from making butter. Better to stay with the regular milk if the first one comes out

@MasterDvdC Thanks, it turned out almost as I invisionated it. The shape is a little off, but ot tastes great.
