data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"body-color.color\">\n\t\t\t<p>Make the Honey Cake:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-1\">Preheat oven to 350 degrees. \u00a0Butter and lightly flour three 8&#8243; round pans.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-2\">In medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. \u00a0 Set aside.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-3\">In small bowl, mix together the buttermilk, honey and vanilla. \u00a0Set aside.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-4\">In bowl of stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed\u00a04 minutes until fluffy.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-5\">Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl as needed.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-6\">Gradually add the dry and wet ingredients, alternating, starting and ending with dry ingredients. \u00a0Mix until just combined, being careful not to over mix.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-7\">Divide batter evenly between the three 8&#8243; round pans.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-8\">Bake for 30-35 minutes, until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-9\">Let cool in pans for 10 to 15 minutes, then remove to wire rack to finish cooling.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Make the Honey Cream Cheese Frosting:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-10\">In bowl of stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and cream cheese until combined.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-11\">Gradually add confectioners&#8217; sugar and continue to mix, scraping down sides of bowl as needed.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-12\">Add honey and mix until smooth.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Make the Honey Butterscotch Glaze:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-13\">Combine sugar and honey in a medium pan over medium heat. \u00a0Stir until the sugar dissolves and you have a liquid.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-14\">Continue to cook without stirring, swirling pan occasionally. \u00a0Mixture will bubble and start to darken in color.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-15\">Once mixture is butterscotch brown, stir using a wooden spoon and remove from heat.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-16\">Carefully pour in the cream and stir until combined.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-17\">Add butter and stir until smooth. \u00a0Add salt and stir once more.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-18\">Let sauce cool completely before using on the cake! \u00a0This can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator. \u00a0Allow glaze to come to room temperature before using so that it pours easily.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Assemble the Cake:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-19\">Place one layer of cake onto serving plate or cake stand and top with about one cup of honey cream cheese frosting. \u00a0Repeat with second cake layer, more frosting and then last layer of cake.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-20\">Crumb coat and frost cake with remaining frosting.\u00a0 Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until frosting is set.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-21\">Drizzle butterscotch glaze\u00a0over the top with small drips overflowing the edge. Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until glaze is set. \u00a0Sprinkle top with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2cXQ1qW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">gold sanding sugar<\/a>, if desired.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n\t<div class=\"tasty-recipes-notes\">\n\t\t<h3 data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"h3-color.color h3-transform.text-transform\">Notes<\/h3>\n\t\t<div class=\"tasty-recipes-notes-body\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"body-color.color\">\n\t\t\t<ul>\n<li>You may bake this as two full-sized 8\u2033 round cake layers, with an increased bake time.
