Delicious Two-Tier Vanilla Cake Recipe
Ingredients
Making a two-tier vanilla cake is surprisingly easy and requires minimal ingredients. You will need:
- 2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- ½ teaspoon of baking soda
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 1 cup of butter (at room temperature)
- 2 cups of granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup of full-fat sour cream (at room temperature)
- 1 cup of hot water
Instructions
The first step to making this delicious two-tier vanilla cake is to preheat your oven to 350°F. Next, you will need to prepare two 9-inch round cake pans. Grease the pans with butter and then line the bottom with parchment paper. This will ensure your cakes come out of the pans easily.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set the bowl aside.
In another large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Use an electric mixer to ensure the butter and sugar are well blended. Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, and continue to mix until everything is combined. Next, add the sour cream and blend until the batter is smooth.
In thirds, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until everything is just combined. Pour in the hot water and mix until the batter is smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans.
Bake the cakes for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean. Once the cakes are done baking, remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Allow the cakes to cool completely before decorating.
Decorating
Once the cakes have cooled, you can decorate them as desired. You can use a simple vanilla buttercream frosting for a classic look, or you can get creative with fondant or other decorations. Once the cakes are decorated, stack them up on a cake board and you are ready to serve!
