3 Layer Vanilla Sponge Cake Recipe

Ingredients

This 3 Layer Vanilla Sponge Cake Recipe is a great way to impress your guests. It has a delicious, fluffy, and moist texture that is sure to please everyone. Here is what you will need to make this delectable treat:

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups buttermilk

Instructions

Before you start, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease 3 9-inch round cake pans.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and vanilla extract. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly between the 3 prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
Cool the cakes in the pans for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Frosting and Assembly

Once the cakes are completely cooled, you can begin to assemble the cake. Here is what you will need:

1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
3 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt

To make the frosting, cream the butter until light and fluffy. Slowly add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing until each cup is incorporated before adding the next. Add the milk, vanilla extract, and salt and continue to beat until the frosting is light and fluffy.

To assemble the cake, place one layer of cake on a plate or cake stand. Spread a generous layer of frosting over the top. Place the second layer on top of the frosting and spread a generous layer of frosting over the top. Place the third layer on top. Spread a thin layer of frosting over the entire cake and refrigerate for 30 minutes. This will help to set the frosting before you spread the remaining frosting over the cake.
