How to Make Easter Cake?

• Prepare three 8 inch cake pans with parchment paper circles in the bottom and grease the sides
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees
• In a medium size bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt, set aside
• In a large mixer bowl, add butter, sugar oil and vanilla extract and beat together until light in color and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes
• Add the eggs one at the time, mixing until mostly combined after each, scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to be sure all ingredients are well incorporated
• Add half of the dry ingredients to the batter and mix until mostly combined
• Slowly add the milk and mix until well combined. The batter will look curled, but that is ok
• Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until well combined and smooth. Do not over mix the batter
• Divide the batter in three separate bowls and add the food colors to the bowls, coloring one bowl with each color, red, yellow and green
• Spread the batter into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a few crumbs
• Remove from oven to cool completely
• To make frosting:
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and salt on medium speed until smooth and creamy
• Slowly add half of the powdered sugar and mix until smooth
• Add heavy cream and vanilla extract and mix until smooth
• Slowly add the remaining powdered sugar and mix until smooth, beat in more powdered sugar if frosting too thin
• To Assemble the Cake:
• To put the cake together, use a large serrated knife to remove the domes from the top of the cakes so that they are flat
• Place the first cake on a serving plate or a cardboard cake round
• Spread about 1 cup of frosting evenly on top of the cake
• Add the second layer of cake and another cup of frosting
• Top the cake with remaining layer and frost the outside of the cake
• Sprinkle top of the cake with sprinkles and press sprinkles into sides of the cake if desired
