How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan.
  • In a large bowl, mix the flour, 2 cups sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Blend in the 1 cup of butter then add buttermilk, 2 teaspoons of vanilla and 4 eggs. Beat for 3 minutes at medium speed. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean.
  • While your cake is baking you can make your butter sauce: In a saucepan combine the remaining 3/4 cups sugar, 1/3 cup butter, 2 teaspoons vanilla, and the water. Cook over medium heat, until fully melted and combined, but do not boil.
  • As soon as you pull your cake out of the oven prick holes in the still warm cake. (I use either a chop stick or sometimes a large fork) Slowly pour sauce over cake making sure to get sides and center of cake. Let cake cool completely before removing from pan.
