Ingredients

FOR THE BUTTER CAKE:

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups of sugar
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon white vinegar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla

FOR THE BUTTER GLAZE:

1 cup of sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter
3 tablespoons brandy (water can be substituted)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

How to Make Kentucky Butter Cake

Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees.

Step 2: Then, grease and flour well a 10-inch or 12 cups bundt pan.

Step 3: Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

Step 4: In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar for about 5 minutes until light and fluffy.

Step 5: In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix the milk with the vinegar.

Step 6: Add in the eggs one at a time into the butter-sugar mixture. Keep stirring until well mixed before adding in the vanilla. Then, mix in the milk-vinegar mixture alternately with the dry ingredients. Stir until well combined.

Step 7: Transfer the mixture in spoonfuls into the prepared bundt pan.

Step 8: Place inside the preheated oven and bake for about 50 to 60 minutes or until the toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Step 9: Once done, remove from the oven but let the cake stay in the pan.

Step 10: Use the smaller end of a chopstick or similar sized tool to poke holes in the cake. Make sure to not go all the way through the bottom.

Step 11: Meanwhile, combine the sugar, butter, and brandy in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently until melted. Make sure to not bring the mixture to a boil. Then, remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.

Step 12: Carefully and gradually pour the glaze over the poked holes and let the cake cool for at least 30 minutes before removing it from the pan.
