Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. You can also line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
-
In a separate large bowl, cream the softened butter until smooth using a hand mixer or a stand mixer.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
-
Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
-
If desired, divide the batter into separate bowls and add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl to create different colored layers.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cake has cooled, frost with your favorite icing and decorate with colorful sprinkles.
