Ultimate Vanilla Cake

• 2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
• Pinch of salt
• 3 cups confectioners' sugar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 to 2 tablespoons milk
• Basic Vanilla Cake, baked and cooled
• Sprinkles, for decorating

1. Make the frosting: Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes.
2. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar until smooth.
3. Add the vanilla, increase the mixer speed to medium high and beat until thick, about 2 more minutes.
4. Add the milk a little at a time and beat until the frosting is spreadable but not runny.
5. Assemble the cake: Put 1 cake layer on a platter; spread 1 cup frosting on top.
6. Top with the second cake layer, then cover the whole cake with the remaining frosting.
7. Decorate with sprinkles.
