Steps

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients.
• Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• In the meantime, prepare the caramel frosting. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and milk. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and let it cool for 10 minutes.
• Gradually whisk in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
• Once the cakes are completely cooled, spread a layer of caramel frosting on top of one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining caramel frosting.
• Serve and enjoy!

Tips

• Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature for easier creaming.
• To check if the cakes are done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, they are ready.
• For a richer caramel flavor, you can add a pinch of salt to the caramel frosting.
