When you need something sweet this will work for you. Leave off the icing and this makes an excellent base for strawberry or blueberry short cake, just add whipped creamed and you've got a great homemade desert.
Here's the recipe:
1 stick of butter, softened (1/2 cup)
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cups sifted self-rising flour
1/2 cup buttermilk
Bake in 9x13 inch Pyrex pan in preheated 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes
Icing:
4 tablespoons butter, clarified
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 3/4 - 2 cups confectionary sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Thanks for watching.
