Directions
1
Set your oven to 350°F and prep your two 8-inch pans.
2
Give the sides and bottom of the pans a nice bit of butter and place a circle of parchment paper at the bottom of each pan.
3
In a bowl, sift 2 1/2 cups or 280g of all-purpose flour, 3/4 tsp of salt and 2 1/4 tsp of baking powder.
4
Whisk together the dry ingredients.
5
In a stand mixer, cream 3/4 cup or 170g of room temperature unsalted butter.
6
Add 1 2/3 cups or 333g of granulated sugar while mixing.
7
Mix on high for 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
8
Add 3 large eggs one at a time, letting each incorporate before adding the next.
9
Add 1 tbsp or 15 ml of vanilla.
10
Add the dry ingredients and buttermilk in alternating batches, mixing on the lowest speed.
11
Finish combining the ingredients by hand with a spatula until just combined.
12
Divide the batter evenly (600g each) into the prepared cake pans and give each a quick tap to remove air bubbles.
13
Bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes using cake strips for even baking.
14
Once the cakes have cooled, frost with buttercream frosting and decorate with sprinkles.
