Nothing fancy, just moist made-from-scratch cake. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
2 cups sugar |
4 eggs, room temperature |
3 cups self-rising flour, sifted |
1 cup whole milk, room temperature |
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon butter flavoring |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Grease and flour (3) 8 inch cake pans.
3. Using a mixer, cream butter until fluffy.
4. Add sugar and continue to cream for about 7 minutes.
5. Add eggs one at a time. Beat well after each egg is added.
6. Add flour and milk (alternating to creamed mixture), beginning and ending with flour.
7. Add vanilla and butter flavoring to mix; until just mixed.
8. Divide batter equally into three cake pans.
9. Hold each layer about 3 inches above your counter and carefully drop the pans flat onto counter several times to ensure release of any air bubbles. This will help you have a more level cake.
10. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes (depending on your oven) until done.
11. Cool in pans for 5 - 10 minutes.
12. Remove and immediately wrap each layer in plastic wrap to seal in moisture. Cool completely on wire racks.
