Kentucky Butter Cake

This is one of the best cakes I have ever had. It is very moist, but it has a crunchy layer from the glaze. I just made this cake and plan on making it again very soon, it is really that good! The cake is very easy to make, the only thing that takes time is baking it. But it is well worth the wait! I love the taste of vanilla so I usually add an extra splash.
