Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare three 8" cake pans with cooking spray and parchment.
In a medium bowl, combine eggs, egg whites, milk and vanilla. Set aside.
In bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, combine dry ingredients together on low speed for 30 seconds.
Add butter and creamer, mixing on low speed until just combined. Increase to medium speed and mix for 1-2 minutes.
Scrape sides of bowl, then add egg mixture. Beat on medium speed until just combined.
Divide batter between three cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, until toothpick comes out clean.

To make buttercream, place 3/4 cup sugar in small saucepan and cover with a little water until sugar looks like wet sand. Cook on stovetop over high heat until it reaches 248°F on candy thermometer.
