Ingredients:
For the cake:
2 1/3 cups (290g) Flour
2 teaspoons Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup (115g) Butter, softened
1/2 cup (120ml) Oil
1½ cups (300g) Sugar
3 Eggs
1 cup (240ml) Buttermilk (more if needed)
1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
For the frosting:
2/3 cup (150g) Butter, softened
1/2 cup (120ml) Heavy cream, cold
1¼ cups (160g) Icing sugar
2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
1¾ cups (400g) Cream cheese
Decoration:
confetti sprinkles
Directions:
1. Make the cake: Preheat oven to 350F (175C). Line two 8-inch (20cm) round cake pans with parchment paper and grease bottom and sides.
2. In one bowl, sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, add salt, stir and set aside.
3. In a large bowl cream together butter and sugar. Then add eggs, one at the time, beating until combined after each addition. Add oil, vanilla extract and beat until incorporated.
4. Alternate adding flour mixture and buttermilk, beginning by adding 1/2 of the flour mixture, then 1/2 of the buttermilk. Then repeat this process. Beat until fully incorporating after each addition.
5. Divide the batter between prepared pans. Bake for about 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Allow the cakes to cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan, then release from the pan and let cool completely on a wire rack.
7. Make the frosting: in a large bowl, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl beat heavy cream to stiff peaks. Then fold into the cream cheese mixture.
8. Assembly: Place one cake layer with flat side down. Spread a layer of frosting, place the second layer of cake on top of the frosting, flat side up. Spread evenly the frosting on top and sides of the cake. Decorate the edges of the cake with sprinkles.
9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Who else is randomly up in the middle of the night thinking about bakeing a cake even thought I'm not hungry just bc
If you’re looking for a comment to make sure this is a good recipe, well here I am, MAKE THIS! I made this cake for my birthday, along with a mascarpone cream instead of a buttercream, and it was delicious. My parents loved it. :) Btw guys, in Portugal we don’t have buttermilk, so in case it’s the same for you, I actually made buttermilk by putting 1 tablespoon of vinegar in the milk. I waited 10 minutes before using it, and it did great. :)
I made this cake. My first cake ever and it taste like I was a professional! Moist, fluffy, tasty, melt in your mouth delicious!😋 better then the box stuff. And it was easy 😊 thanks
Both my girls are December born. I tried this last month and it was great. Thank you so much for helping to make their cakes yummy.
No drama...no disaster... This cake is so delicious....what a lovely recipe, thanks for sharing 👍
I havent tried the icing/frosting yet but the cake recipe itself is so ON POINT! I followed your recipe and the cake is so delicious
Made this today and this is by far one of the best vanilla cakes ive eaten ngl. Its soft, crumbly, moist - everything youd want in a cake. I personally added 40g less sugar since it felt like too much to me and i also added the smallest amount of butter cream (i like my cakes mildly sweet) and it still tasted amazing wow
This cake is absolutely perfect it's so soft and delicious wow just wow
This is so simple and clear, easy to learn for beginners like me, no time wasted, I've saved it already, thank you so much 😊
