🎂 Funfetti Sprinkle Cake Recipe
Ingredients
For the cake
• 2 cups all-purpose flour (250g)
• 1½ cups granulated sugar (300g)
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (225g)
• 4 large eggs
• ½ cup milk (120ml)
• 2 teaspoons baking powder (8g)
• ½ teaspoon salt (3g)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla flavour (10ml)
• ½ cup colourful sprinkles (80g)
For the buttercream frosting
• 2 cups unsalted butter, softened (450g)
• 6 cups icing sugar (720g)
• ¼ cup milk or whipping cream (60ml)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla flavour (10ml)
For decoration
• Pink drip icing or coloured white chocolate
• Extra colourful sprinkles
• Whipped buttercream swirls
Instructions
Cream the butter and sugar together until light, pale and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla flavour.
In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
Fold in the colourful sprinkles gently.
Divide the batter evenly between prepared cake pans.
Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C until the cakes are golden and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean, about 25–35 minutes depending on the pan size.
Allow the cakes to cool completely.
For the buttercream, beat the butter until creamy. Gradually add the icing sugar, then add the milk and vanilla. Beat until light and fluffy.
Place one cake layer on a cake board or plate and spread buttercream over it. Repeat with the remaining layers.
Cover the entire cake with a smooth layer of buttercream.
Add the pink drip around the edges, pipe buttercream swirls on top and decorate generously with colourful sprinkles.
