What is "butter cake"?

Butter cake is a type of cake that is rich and indulgent, with a dense and moist texture. It is made from a mixture of flour, sugar, eggs, and butter, which gives the cake its signature buttery flavor and texture. Butter cake can be made in a variety of shapes and sizes, such as loaf cakes, layer cakes, or cupcakes. The cake is often flavored with ingredients such as vanilla extract or lemon zest, which add a delicate and nuanced flavor to the cake. Butter cake is usually served plain, with a light dusting of powdered sugar or a simple glaze, which allows the buttery flavor of the cake to shine through. It is a popular dessert for special occasions, such as birthdays or weddings, and can be found in bakeries, coffee shops, and supermarkets.
