I’m convinced that the key to a homemade cake coming out tender and moist (sorry, I know a lot of people hate that word but it’s really the only one that applies here) is buttermilk! I use it in my One Bowl Chocolate Cake and decided to use it in this Homemade Italian Cream Cake recipe as well. Switching out the milk for buttermilk made all the difference! Also, I have always found homemade white or vanilla cakes to be drier than their boxed mix cake mix counterparts. I feel like I can almost say that I have tried all the vanilla cake recipes over the years. I’ve had people swear to me a certain recipe is their go-to, then I try it and I’m like “Eh, it’s okay but it’s nowhere near as moist as a boxed cake mix.” I have absolutely no problem saying that. I love a good boxed cake mix (Duncan Hines 4 Life!) Hey, I’m too old to be a food snob at this point. But at least I’m honest.
