Grandma’s Special Birthday Cake (Page 2 ) | January 27, 2024

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). 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 together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined.
6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely on wire racks.
8. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the frosting. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Beat until smooth and fluffy.
9. Once the cakes are completely cooled, spread a layer of frosting on top of one cake layer. Place the second layer on top and frost the entire cake, including the sides.
10. Decorate the cake with your grandma’s favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, edible flowers, or a personalized birthday message.
