Lori's Buttermilk Cake
Ingredients
  • 3 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 6 eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 dash vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit, or equivalently 165 degrees Celsius. Next, take a moment to prepare your 10-inch Bundt pan by coating it lightly with butter and dusting it evenly with flour.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar and softened butter using an electric mixer to create a smooth and airy mixture. Gradually add eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before proceeding to the next addition.
3
In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until they form a cohesive blend. Then, gently fold this dry mixture into the sugar-butter combination until everything is well combined.
4
Introduce buttermilk and vanilla extract into the mixture, blending them seamlessly to create a rich and velvety texture.
5
Carefully pour the batter into your prepared Bundt pan, ensuring it's evenly distributed and smooth.
6
Place the Bundt pan in your preheated oven and bake until the top is golden brown, signifying that it's done. A toothpick inserted into the center should emerge clean and free of any remaining batter.
7
Once the cake is baked, allow it to cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before gently tapping the pan a few times and shaking it to release the cake.
8
Finally, position a wire rack over the pan and carefully invert the cake onto it to cool completely.
