How to Make Spectacular Midori Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. Add 1 cup buttermilk, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup Midori melon liqueur.
  4. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, then increase to high speed and beat for another 2 minutes, or until the batter is smooth and creamy.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting (recipe below).
  9. Once the cake is completely cool, frost generously and let it set for at least 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
  10. **Frosting:**
  11. In a medium bowl, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
  12. Gradually add 3 cups powdered sugar, beating until combined.
  13. Add 2-4 tablespoons Midori melon liqueur (adjust to your preferred sweetness), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  14. Beat until smooth and creamy. Add more powdered sugar if needed to reach desired consistency.
