Invert the cake into a plate. Divide the cake into 2 layers with a help of a knife .Or you can bake 2 cakes in similar sized pans.
Prepare buttercream frosting by beating butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
 
Frosting The Cake
Place one of the layers onto the cake decorating turn table.Add some buttercream over it and spread well with a spatula.

Now place the other cake over it like stacking and press gently.


Then decorate the cake with buttercream.


With a help of a piping cone decorate the sides of the cake. Then I poured butterscotch sauce over the buttercream frosting on the top. Also added chopped almonds over the center of the cake.
