For the frosting:

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
