Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting

     We were having a potluck session, so I decided to make a chocolate cake, and egg tarts. This chocolate cake is a very easy-to-make basic 2-layer chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream frosting coated with chocolate shavings.

1 cup butter, softened

Steps:

2. Beat eggs, sugar and oil till mixed.
3. Alternately add milk and flour mixture till well mixed. Pour into the 9-inch pan and bake for 30-35 minutes till toothpicks inserted come out clean.
4. Set aside to let it cool completely.
5. Beat the softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract and milk till form smooth yet a little firm consistency.

Enjoy!
