- 2 eggs

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the frosting:

- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

- 4 cups confectioners' sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9 inch round baking pans.

2. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Beat in the dry ingredients alternately with the buttermilk. Fold in the chopped rose petals.
