Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare two 8-inch round cake pans by greasing and flouring them.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cake flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggnog, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients while mixing on low speed until just combined and smooth.
- Evenly pour the batter into the prepared cake pans and bake for 50 to 55 minutes.
- Once baked, let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then flip them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat softened unsalted butter until creamy, then gradually add confectioner’s sugar, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Once the cake layers are completely cool, place one layer on a cake stand and spread eggnog buttercream over the top.
- Add the second layer and apply more buttercream on top and around the sides of the cake.
- Slice and share the cake during holiday gatherings for a delightful treat.
