Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and line with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 4 minutes).
Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed. Stir in vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, alternating with milk.
Divide batter between pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool cakes in pans for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Whip heavy cream in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form; gradually add powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
Assemble the cake by layering with whipped cream between the cakes and frosting lightly around the sides.
