Recipe: Rainbow Drip Cake Magic

Ingredients:

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 2 cups sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Gel food coloring (pink, blue, yellow)
• Buttercream frosting
• Sprinkles for decoration
• White chocolate drip, tinted with gel food coloring

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and line three 8-inch round cake pans to ensure easy removal.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one by one, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, and starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir in the vanilla extract for a touch of warmth.
4. Divide the batter evenly into three separate bowls. Add a few drops of gel food coloring to each bowl—one pink, one blue, and one yellow—and gently mix until the colors are well blended.
5. Pour the colored batters into the prepared cake pans, ensuring an even layer for each. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely before assembling.
6. Once cooled, stack the cakes with a layer of buttercream frosting between each. Apply a thin crumb coat around the entire cake and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to set.
7. After chilling, add another smooth layer of buttercream around the cake. Prepare the white chocolate drip by melting the chocolate and adding a few drops of gel food coloring. Carefully pour the drip along the edges of the cake, allowing it to cascade down the sides.
8. Decorate the top with swirls of buttercream and finish with a generous sprinkle of colorful sprinkles.
