Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 4 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1.5 cups toffee bits (such as Heath bits)
• 4 cups powdered sugar (for frosting)
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (for frosting)
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream (for frosting)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for frosting)
• 0.5 cup toffee bits (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch cake pan or spray it with baking spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Step 6

Gently fold in the toffee bits until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 9

While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a large bowl, beat the powdered sugar and softened butter together until fluffy.

Step 10

Add the heavy cream and vanilla extract, then beat until smooth and creamy.

Step 11

Once the cake is completely cool, spread the frosting evenly over the surface of the cake.

Step 12

Sprinkle the remaining toffee bits over the frosted cake as a garnish.

Step 13

Slice and serve! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
