  • 1 1/2 teaspoons 1 1/2 baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon 1/2 baking soda

  • 1/2 teaspoon 1/2 salt

  • 1 cup 1 (2 sticks/226g) unsalted butter, softened

  • 2 cups 2 (400g) brown sugar, packed

  • 3 large 3 eggs

  • 1 teaspoon 1 vanilla extract

  • 1 1/4 cups 1 1/4 (300ml) buttermilk

  • For the Caramel Icing:
  • 1 cup 1 (2 sticks/226g) unsalted butter

  • 2 cups 2 (400g) brown sugar, packed

  • 1/2 cup 1/2 (120ml) heavy cream

  • 2 teaspoons 2 vanilla extract

  • 4 cups 4 (480g) powdered sugar

Directions

  • For the Butterscotch Cake:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch (20cm) round cake pans.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  • Divide the cake batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
  • Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
  • For the Caramel Icing:
  • In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
  • Stir in the brown sugar and heavy cream. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Remove the caramel mixture from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Let the caramel cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Gradually whisk in the powdered sugar until the icing is smooth and creamy.
  • To Assemble:
  • Place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand. Spread a layer of caramel icing over the top.
  • Add the second cake layer and repeat with another layer of icing.
  • Place the final cake layer on top and cover the entire cake with the remaining caramel icing.
  • Decorate the cake as desired, and slice and serve your Butterscotch Cake with Caramel Icing. Enjoy the decadent delight!
