Spread the cake batter evenly in prepared pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. You may need to cover the top with foil, if the top browns too quickly.
GLAZE: While the cake is baking, combine sugar, butter, buttermilk, corn syrup and baking soda in a medium saucepan. Stir and cook to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla.
Pour and spread glaze over hot cake as soon as the cake is removed from the oven. Let cake cool completely before serving. The longer it sits, the better it gets!
