• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 6 ounces white chocolate, melted and cooled
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2-3 tablespoons heavy cream or milk

Instructions:

For the cake:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the white chocolate buttercream:

1. In a heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy.
3. Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
4. Mix in the melted white chocolate and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
5. If the frosting is too thick, add heavy cream or milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.

Assembly:

1. Once the cakes are completely cooled, place one layer on a serving plate or cake stand.
2. Spread a layer of white chocolate buttercream on top of the first layer.
3. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining buttercream.
4. Decorate the cake as desired with white chocolate curls, sprinkles, or fresh berries.
