Butterscotch Cake

Butterscotch Cake

Butterscotch cake is a rich, caramel-flavored dessert made with butter, brown sugar, and a delicious butterscotch sauce. It has a moist and fluffy texture, with layers of creamy frosting and crunchy caramelized nuts for added flavor. This cake is a favorite for birthdays and celebrations due to its unique, buttery sweetness.

To prepare, start by creaming butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, vanilla extract, and milk, followed by the dry ingredients—flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.

The highlight of this cake is the butterscotch sauce, made by melting butter and brown sugar, then adding cream for a smooth, caramel-like consistency. This sauce is drizzled over the cake layers, enhancing the flavor. The cake is typically frosted with butterscotch buttercream or whipped cream and topped with caramel shards, nuts, or butterscotch chips for extra crunch.
