- Preheat oven to 350º F. Prepare three cake pans with butter and flour. Set aside.
- Cream together the butter and sugar until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time and mix until combined after each egg. Add the flour and buttermilk, alternating between the two and beginning and ending with the flour.
- Divide the cake batter between the three prepared cake pans and bake until the center springs back to a light touch and the sides of the cake begin to pull away from the sides of the pan.
- Remove the cake layers from the oven. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes and then turn them out onto wire racks to cool completely.
- Make double the original recipe for Southern Caramel Icing to have ample icing for this three layer cake.
ENJOY!!
