Number Of Ingredients 16

CAKE:
2 1/2 cups cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup oil, or substitute 1/2 cup applesauce or 1 cup mashed bananas
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or extract
Zest of 1 lemon, optional
1 cup milk
PINK FROSTING:
3 cups confectioners sugar
3 tablespoons butter, softened
3 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla and 2 drops red food coloring
Candy sprinkles

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spray or oil a 9x9-inch pan (for a thicker cake) or a 9x13-inch pan (for a thin cake), set aside. CAKE: In one bowl, combine the cake flour, baking powder and salt. Stir to combine, set aside. In another bowl, cream together the sugar, eggs, oil and vanilla until creamy. Add in the lemon zest, if using. While the mixer is running, alternate adding some flour, then some milk until batter is smooth. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 22 to 25 minutes or until knife comes out clean from center of cake. If you over bake, it will be dry. Remove from oven and let cool. FROSTING: Once cake has cooled, prepare frosting. In a large bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, butter, milk and vanilla. Add the food coloring and stir until well combined. Frost the cake in the pan and add sprinkles. The frosting will firm up as it sets.

Overall, I thought this cake was pretty good. It was moist and had a nice flavor, but I would have liked it to be a little sweeter.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cake turned out dry and crumbly. The frosting was also too runny.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of beets, but I'm so glad I did. The cake was amazing! The beets added a subtle sweetness and earthiness that really complemented the other flavors.
