It’s a little/big slice of perfection and it’s a show stopper with all the flowers on the sides! You can decorate this with any number of toppings – or just keep it simple and frosted. I love to add a flowering moment on the cake – it makes it more of a centerpiece AND a dessert basically killing 2 birds with one stone. I know you guys are going to love this one. 10 servings Ingredients: 4 tsp. Vanilla extract 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, room temperature 28 oz.
