拏 Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

teaspoon salt

1 cup unsalted butter for frosting

Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350F 180C. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely.
For the frosting, beat the butter until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream. Beat until light and fluffy.
Spread frosting between the cake layers and all over the cake. Decorate with sprinkles!
Pro Tip: Want an extra moist cake? Wrap the cooled cake layers in plastic wrap and let them rest overnight before frosting. This allows the flavors to develop and makes the cake even more delicious!
