How to Make Milk Chocolate Frosted Layer Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cake flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting.
- For the frosting: In a large bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder, alternating with the milk, until smooth and creamy.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Once the cake is completely cool, slice it vertically down the center. Then, slice horizontally into 1-inch thick pieces.
- Frost the cake and enjoy!
