Ingredients

For the Cake:

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup buttermilk

For the Cream Filling:

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

For the Topping (optional):

  • Fresh berries or chocolate shavings

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. Prepare the cake batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes). Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Alternate adding the flour mixture and buttermilk to the batter, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool the cakes in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
  7. Make the cream filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until incorporated. Gradually add the heavy whipping cream and beat until thickened and stiff peaks form.
  8. Assemble the cake: Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous amount of the cream filling over the top. Place the second cake layer on top and spread the remaining cream over the top and sides of the cake.
  9. Decorate with fresh berries or chocolate shavings if desired.
  10. Chill the cake for at least 1 hour before serving for the flavors to meld together.

Enjoy this luxurious creamy cake!
