Ingredients:
- 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 cup whole milk
- 1 batch of your favorite vanilla frosting
- 1 bag of candy-coated chocolate eggs
Serves: 8-10
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting.
- Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to make the cake batter.
- Use a serrated knife to level the cake layers before frosting.
- Use a piping bag to create a decorative border around the cake.
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
5. Stir in the vanilla extract.
6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, until the batter is smooth.
7. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
9. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and let them cool completely on wire racks.
10. Once the cakes are cool, level them with a serrated knife.
11. Place one cake layer on a cake plate or stand. Spread a layer of frosting on top.
12. Place the second cake layer on top of the frosting. Spread a thin layer of frosting over the entire cake to create a crumb coat.
13. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
14. Once the crumb coat is set, spread a thick layer of frosting over the entire cake.
15. Decorate the cake with candy-coated chocolate eggs.
16. Serve and enjoy!
