It is not a good idea to replace milk with buttermilk in a cake recipe since buttermilk is more acidic than ordinary milk.1/2 tsp. more baking soda should be used in the mix,if at all the milk is replaced by buttermilk.
Buttermilk can be used as a substitute for milk in chocolate cake recipe because buttermilk enhances the chocolate flavor.
