What’s the Best Vanilla Cake Recipe on the Internet? | Eater
"A classic creamed-butter vanilla layer cake that uses buttermilk and baking powder for moisture and lift. The result is dense but moist with a slightly crumbly, buttery texture and an even golden-brown, flat top; it requires careful handling when assembling. Paired with a traditional American buttercream, the whole cake reads as familiar and nostalgic—comforting and reliably crowd-pleasing, though the frosting can feel rich and heavy alongside the cake." - Bettina Makalintal
