Lori's White Cake

Ingredients

• 3 cups white sugar
• 1 cup butter or margarine
• 6 large eggs
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.25 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 dash vanilla extract , or to taste

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan.

2. 2

   Cream sugar and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

3. 3

   Sift flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add to shortening mixture; beat until combined. Beat in buttermilk and vanilla. Pour batter into the prepared Bundt pan.

4. 4

   Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Tap the pan firmly a few times, then shake it gently to loosen the cake. Place a wire rack over the pan and invert to release cake onto the rack to cool completely.
