- 1 3/4 cups white sugar
- 1/3 cup hot water
- 3 cups sifted cake flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup butter
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup milk
- Prepare burnt sugar by placing 1/2 white sugar into a heavy skillet over medium high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon as sugar melts. When it becomes very dark brown, remove from heat, add hot water very slowly and stir until dissolved. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees F). Line two 9 inch round baking pans with parchment paper.
- Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together three times.
- Cream the butter or margarine with the remaining 1 1/4 cups white sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating thoroughly after each. Stir in the vanilla and the burnt sugar syrup mixture.
- Add the dry ingredients and milk alternately to the creamed mixture. Beat until smooth. Pour batter into the prepared pans.
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 to 30 minutes.
