For the cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup whole milk
- Food coloring (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple)
For the frosting:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
To make the cake, preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour three 8-inch cake pans. 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.
Divide the batter evenly into six bowls. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl to create the colors of the rainbow. Pour each color of batter into its own prepared cake pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely before assembling.
To make the frosting, cream the butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract until the frosting is creamy and spreadable.
To assemble the cake, place one layer of cake on a serving plate. Spread a layer of frosting on top, then add the next layer of cake. Repeat until all layers are stacked. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.
The Easter Rainbow Cake is a show-stopping dessert that is sure to impress your guests. The vibrant colors of the cake are eye-catching and the taste is deliciously sweet. This dessert is perfect for Easter celebrations and will be a hit with both kids and adults alike.
