To make this Easter Egg Surprise Cake, you will need the following ingredients:

For the cake:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whole milk

For the surprise:

- 1 large Easter egg

For the frosting:

- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-3 tablespoons whole milk
- Food coloring (optional)
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until the batter is smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth out the top. Place the Easter egg in the center of the batter, making sure it is standing upright. Gently press the egg down into the batter until it is covered. Bake the cake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, carefully remove the cake from the pan and place it on a serving platter.
To make the frosting, cream together the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the frosting is smooth and creamy. If desired, add in food coloring to achieve your desired color.
Frost the cake with the frosting, making sure to cover the entire cake. Decorate the cake with additional Easter eggs or other decorations as desired.
