Viral Vanilla Cake

Self admitted- I am not usually a baker, but you guys this vanilla cake is DREAMY.  I served it for my daughters birthday and had people texting me after about the cake recipe.  It is the perfect consistency and if you make my homemade buttercream, it is a winning combination.

The perfect circular vanilla cake is topped with the creamiest butter cream.

The perfect vanilla cake does exist!
