I purchased some buttermilk while it was on sale and I wanted to get it used so I decided to make a cake. (Yes, I could have froze the buttermilk but I didn't want to since I have some from already frozen. We don't need the cake but boy is it tasty. I did give half of it to Cooking W. and her family so at least we won't eat the entire thing. I was sad to have the center sink but I am going to blame it on Bob and his cousin running around like crazies. Got a problem with that? I don't.
This cake is delectable. The caramel icing is delicious (not as high up there as the brown butter frosting but still high up there).
