To make these Easter Petit Fours, you will need the following ingredients:

For the cake:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the decoration:

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x9 inch baking 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. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until the batter is smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before cutting it into small squares.
To make the frosting, cream together the powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add in the milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the frosting reaches your desired consistency. If desired, add food coloring to tint the frosting to your desired color.
Using a small offset spatula or butter knife, spread a thin layer of frosting onto each cake square. Top with Easter-themed sprinkles or candies to decorate.
These Easter Petit Fours are a perfect combination of sweet and delicate flavors, with a soft and fluffy cake base and a creamy frosting that melts in your mouth. They are sure to be a hit at your Easter celebration, and are a great way to add a touch of elegance to your dessert table.
