This Dreamy white cake with cinnamon buttercream frosting is a basic 1-2-3-4 cake. Getting it's name from the proportions of its basic ingredients, it is so easy you will always remember it without even having to reference a recipe. I have added my favourite cinnamon buttercream frosting to give it a subtle spicy flavour.
The proportions of this cake's basic ingredients are simple
and to this I add one cup of milk, a tablespoon of baking powder and a scraping of vanilla bean from the pod. Once the pod is scraped I like to add it to a container with sugar, so that I always have vanilla flavoured sugar at hand.
This recipe will make a standard 9″ cake, but I love to use smaller 6″ cake tins to make the cake higher, and allowing me to cut the cake into extra layers . Same amount of cake , just so much more impressive. This also gives me an excuse to add extra cinnamon buttercream frosting to the inside.
Have a wonderful weekend my friends.
