Caramel Cake
Updated November 11, 2020 
"This made-from-scratch Southern Caramel Cake is a rich, decadent dessert that's perfect for special occasions. The light and fluffy vanilla layer cake is frosted with a buttery caramel icing (no candy thermometer required)! Serve this old-fashioned show-stopper at Thanksgiving, Christmas or any other festive gathering to really wow your guests. An authentic homemade Caramel Cake is truly a Southern classic! You just can't beat the combination of a light and fluffy vanilla butter cake that's smothered in a rich, sweet, made-from-scratch caramel icing. Yes, it requires a bit more time and effort than a boxed mix or a can of store-bought frosting, but in this case it's well worth the effort. I have no doubt that the caramel layer cake will soon become a family favorite in your home, too! "
