I made this for my sister's birthday, and it was out of this world! The frosting is very buttery and different tasting than the normal creamy frosting you usually have on this cake. Ingredients:
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon butter flavoring |
1 (1 ounce) bottle red food coloring, optional |
2 1/2 cups cake flour |
2 tablespoons baking cocoa |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 cup buttermilk |
1 teaspoon vinegar |
1 1/2 cups milk |
1/2 cup flour |
1 1/2 cups butter or 1 1/2 cups margarine, softened |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 1/2 teaspoons butter flavoring |

3. Beat in vanilla, butter flavoring and food coloring.
4. Combine flour, cocoa and soda.
5. Combine buttermilk and vinegar.
6. Add flour mixture alternately with buttermilk mixture to creamed mixture.
7. Pour into three greased and floured 9-inch round cake pans.
