I made this cake for dessert tonight! oh my total awesomeness!! It was so delicious! I even made a mistake and only put in 1/3 c of buttermilk(to the cake part) when i was supposed to add 1 c! It kinda tasted more like a brownie than cake but that could be due to me messing up! The frosting was sooo delish! I'll def be making this again
