Another thing to love about this cake—the batter ingredients are poured into the mixing bowl and beat together all at once. No need to cream the butter and sugar or add the dry ingredients alternating with the milk.
It’s as easy as using a cake mix. Bake this cake for a special event or party or take it along to a potluck dinner—everyone will thank you. Oh, and take a few copies of the recipe to share. Generously grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan or 10-inch tube pan. Make sure you get all the nooks and crannies of the Bundt pan. In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the flour, sugar, softened butter, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Beat on low speed until moistened.
