Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line the bottoms of three 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper and grease the sides.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened salted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- In another bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, and sour cream until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, masa harina, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the creamed mixture, alternating with the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Spread the batter evenly among the three prepared pans and bake for 28-33 minutes.
- Cool cakes in pans for 10 minutes, then invert onto wire racks to cool completely.
- Beat softened butter until smooth. Add honey and mix until combined, then gradually add powdered sugar and cornstarch until fluffy.
- Assemble the cake by layering and frosting each layer with honey buttercream.
