Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
  2. Butter an 8-inch square cake pan and line with a square of parchment paper, then butter parchment.
  3. Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Beat butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until pale and fluffy, then beat in vanilla.
  5. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
  6. At low speed, beat in buttermilk until just combined (mixture may look curdled).
  7. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, mixing until each addition is just incorporated.
  8. Spread batter evenly in cake pan, then rap pan on counter several times to eliminate air bubbles.
  9. Bake until golden and a wooden pick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes.
  10. Cool in pan on a rack 10 minutes, then run a knife around edge of pan. Invert onto rack and discard parchment, then cool completely, about 1 hour.
  11. Make glaze:
  12. Bring cream, brown sugar, corn syrup, and a pinch of salt to a boil in a 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved.
  13. Boil until glaze registers 210 to 212°F on thermometer, 12 to 14 minutes, then stir in vanilla.
  14. Put rack with cake in a shallow baking pan and pour hot glaze over top of cake, allowing it to run down sides.
  15. Cool until glaze is set, about 30 minutes.
