- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder

- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup jelly (your choice of flavor)

Cooking Tips:

- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
5. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Spread the jelly evenly over the batter. Top with the remaining batter.
6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
7. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing it from the pan and placing it on a wire rack to cool completely.
