French Vanilla-Caramel Cake
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cakes are cooled, spread caramel sauce on top of one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with whipped cream.
-
Drizzle caramel sauce over the top of the cake for garnish.
-
Let the cake rest for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
-
Slice and serve.
