You'll Need:

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup buttermilk or sour milk
1 cup butter, room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 large eggs

Sauce
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup butter
3 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Procedure:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan or 10-inch tube pan. In a large bowl, combine all cake ingredients; beat on low speed until moistened. Beat for about 3 minutes at medium speed. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake at 325 degrees F for 50 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine sauce ingredients; cook just until butter melts, stirring occasionally. Do not bring to a boil. Pierce the cake all over with a fork then pour the hot sauce over the warm cake. Let stand 5 minutes, or until sauce is absorbed.
