Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour cake pans (2- 8 inch is what I used)
In bowl, whisk flour and baking powder together.
Beat butter and sugar until fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time and beat after each addition. Scrape bowl as when needed.
Step 2
In another bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together buttermilk, milk and vanilla.
Alternately add the flour and buttermilk mixtures, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients (3 additions flour mixture- 2 additions buttermilk mixture).
Beat until just combined. Don't overbeat.
Distribute evenly among the prepared pans.
Bake for 24-28 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Once done, allow cakes to cool in pans for 5 minutes.
Flip onto wire racks and let cakes cool completely, upto an hour.
Decorate with vanilla buttercream.
