How to Make Sugar And Spice Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  7. Pour batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
  8. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cakes cool in pans for 5 minutes before inverting onto wire racks to cool completely.
  10. Once completely cool, frost the layers with vanilla buttercream frosting (Southern Living recipe #335085), and frost the top and sides.
  11. Garnish as desired and enjoy!
