Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Grease and flour cake pan. Cream butter until fluffy with a mixer. Add sugar and cream for another 7 minutes. Add eggs one egg at a time, beating well after each one. Add flour and milk (alternating to creamed mixture), beginning and ending with flour. Add vanilla and butter flavoring to mix; until just mixed. Divide batter equally into three cake pans. Hold each layer about 3 inches above your counter and carefully drop the pans flat onto counter several times to ensure release of any air bubbles. This will help you have a more level cake. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes (depending on your oven) until done. Cool in pans for 5 - 10 minutes. Remove and immediately wrap each layer in plastic wrap to seal in moisture. Cool completely on wire racks. ICING: Beat together shortening and vanilla for 30 seconds on medium speed with an electric mixer. Add 2 cups of powdered sugar a bit at a time while beating.
