- On low, alternate adding the buttermilk and flour until blended.
- Mix in sprinkles.
- Divide into pans and bake approx 45 mins. (Mine too a few extra mins to cook through)
- Cool until just warm and flip onto a rack.
- I like to freeze the layers and then use a serrated knife to divide each layer in half.
- I only used 3 layers for this cake.
- Save the 4th for snacking or cake pops.

- Add cream until desired consistency.
