Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
Bake: Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
Make Frosting: Beat butter until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, vanilla, and heavy cream, beating until smooth. Adjust consistency with more cream if needed.
Assemble and Decorate: Place one cake layer on a serving plate, spread frosting on top, then add the second layer. Frost the entire cake and decorate as desired.
