To make this Easter Mini Egg Cake, you will need the following ingredients:
For the sponge cake:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
For the frosting:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2-3 tbsp milk
- Food coloring (optional)
- Mini eggs, for decoration
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 6-inch 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 and milk, alternating between the two until everything is well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before removing it from the pan.
To make the frosting, cream together the butter and powdered sugar until smooth. Add in the vanilla extract and milk, and mix until the frosting is light and fluffy. If desired, add food coloring to achieve the desired color.
Once the cake has cooled, spread a layer of frosting on top of it. Add another layer of cake on top of the frosting, and repeat until all the cake layers are used up. Spread the remaining frosting on top and around the sides of the cake. Decorate the cake with mini eggs, and serve.
