Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, grease and flour three 8 inch x 2 inch round cake pans. (You could use 2 cake pans for slightly thicker layers if you would rather, but we like the additional layer filling.)

Step 2

In a medium sized bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to blend for 30 seconds. Set aside.

Step 3

In another bowl or measuring cup, combine the sour cream, milk and vanilla

Step 4

In the bowl of your mixer, beat the softened butter until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and beat on medium speed for 3-5 minutes until fluffy and lightened in color.

Step 5

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until the yellow of the yolk disappears.

Step 6

Add the flour mixture and the sour cream mixture alternately, beginning and ending with the flour mixture (3 additions of dry ingredients, 2 of wet).

Step 7

Mix until combined and smooth, do not mix above medium speed or over-mix.

Step 8

Bake at 350 degrees for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached. Let the cakes cool 5-10 minutes, then turn out.

Step 9

Makes 7 cups batter. The recipe works well for cupcakes.

Step 10

Cream the softened butter until smooth. Blend in the vanilla.

Step 11

Add half of the powdered sugar and most of the milk. Beat at medium speed until the powdered sugar is incorporated.

Step 12

Add remaining powdered sugar and milk and mix at medium speed another 3 to 4 minutes scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally. I slow down the mixer to very slow.
