Kentucky Butter Cake Recipe

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Cream Butter and Sugar

In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add Eggs

Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Combine Mixtures

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.

Bake the Cake

Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool the Cake

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Make the Caramel

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar, stirring until it turns a deep amber color.

Add Butter and Cream

Carefully add the butter and cream, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in bourbon and salt.

Whip the Cream

In a bowl, whisk the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.

Serve the Cake

Slice the cooled cake, drizzle with bourbon caramel sauce, top with chantilly cream, and garnish with mixed berries.
