Old-Fashioned Vanilla Cake and Fabulous Ice Creams

This past Sunday presented an opportunity for a quick return to the marvelous velvety old-fashioned vanilla cake with a buttercream frosting. It was spot-on, I must say, and was a ridiculous indulgence following that night's supper.

It didn't hurt that I had red velvet ice cream with cream cheese swirl to make it all the more ridiculous.

Oh, but that was just one of the ice creams I made within the last week. The other was an unremarkable dulce de leche ice cream. But paired with the final slice of the vanilla cake? Most workable.
