How to make Butter Cake Simple and easy Butter Cake Recipe

BUTTER CAKE RECIPE
This is our ALL TIME FAVORITE “GO TO” vanilla cake recipe! It is so light and has a delicious buttery flavor! So yummy! In this video we made a DOUBLE BATCH of this recipe to fill three 8″ cake pans. Following is the recipe for a SINGLE batch which can be easily doubled or tripled (or more if you have a large mixer like the one we used in our video). A single batch is the perfect amount for three 6″ cake pans, and a triple batch is the perfect amount for three 10″ cake pans. If I had to eat only one type of cake for the rest of my life, it would be butter cake. How good could a cake be made with nothing more than butter, sugar, flour, eggs, milk and vanilla extract? DAMN GOOD! A butter cake reminds you that a perfectly good cake doesn’t need anything fancy. It just needs the right mix of ingredients, and the right method for putting them together.
