1 2 3 4 Butter Cake

Ingredients :

1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
3 cups all purpose flour
4 eggs

1tsp salt
3 tsps baking powder
1 cup milk(whole or buttermilk)
1 teaspoon of vanilla(I love vanilla, I always use a lot more)🤭

Buttercream

3 cups confectioners sugar
1/2 to 1 cup bakers cocoa
1 stick butter
3 tbsp milk(add more or less depends on you and how you like your icing)

What to do :

Preheat oven to 350
I sift my flour, salt and baking powder together in a bowl and set it to the side till I’m ready for it.
I also add my vanilla to my milk and stir it.
Beat the sugar & butter about 3-5 mins, add the eggs 1 at a time until blended in, I then add a cup of the flour and half of the milk(combining together with a spatula/spoon), then repeat with the flour and rest of the milk, then finish with the last cup of flour, after its blended in I use the mixer again for about 2/3 minutes
Use 3 8 or 9in layer pans
I spray, dust with flour and cut out circles of parchment paper and put in the bottom of the pan
Bake at 350 for 25-30 mins
