Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  5. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  7. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.

  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  9. Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
