Time 1h20m

Yield 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 20

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 ¾ cups cake flour
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 cup buttermilk, or 1 cup whole milk mixed with 1 tablespoon lemon juice or white vinegar
½ cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 ½ teaspoons red food coloring
1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, softened
1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon McCormick® vanilla extract
¼ cup freshly brewed coffee
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
12 oz cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon heavy cream
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons McCormick® vanilla extract
3 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease 2 8-inch cake pans with nonstick spray and line with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the cake flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda. Whisk to combine.
  • In a large liquid measuring cup, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, vinegar, and red food coloring.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together with an electric hand mixer on high speed until light, fluffy, and homogenous, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and beat on medium speed until incorporated. Add the vanilla and beat to incorporate.
  • Add ½ of the buttermilk mixture to the creamed butter and sugar. Beat on medium speed until well combined, 1-2 minutes. Add ½ of the dry ingredients and beat until well-combined, 1-2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining buttermilk and dry ingredients. With the mixer running, slowly pour in the coffee and beat until just combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean. Let cool for 5 minutes before flipping the cakes out onto a wire rack, then let cool completely
  • While the cakes are cooling, make the cream cheese frosting: In a large bowl, beat together the butter and cream cheese with an electric hand mixer on high speed until well combined and fluffy, 3-5 minutes. Add the heavy cream, salt, and vanilla and mix to combine. Add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, and beat until the frosting is fluffy and smooth.
  • Once cakes have cooled, trim off the domed tops, reserving the scraps. Cut each cake in half so you have 4 even layers.
  • Place 1 cake layer, cut-side up, on a cake stand. Spread an even layer of frosting over the cake. Place another cake layer cut-side down on top of the first layer, spreading another even layer of frosting on top. Repeat with the remaining 2 layers. Spread a thin layer of frosting all over the sides and smooth out with an offset spatula or bench scraper. Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes, until the layer of frosting has hardened.
  • Frost the outside of the cake with a thick layer of frosting. Crumble the reserved cake scraps, then press into the frosting around the bottom of the cake.
  • Slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Time 55m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ¼ cups buttermilk
1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
3 ½ cups powdered sugar
⅓ cup whole milk, plus 1 tablespoon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
rainbow sprinkle, for decorating

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and line 2 9-inch (22 cm) round cake pans with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3-5 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl 2-3 times. Add eggs and the egg yolk, 1 at a time, beating for 30 seconds between each addition, or until just combined. Add the vanilla and beat until incorporated.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add ¼ of the dry ingredients to the batter and beat on medium speed for about 30 seconds, or until fully combined. Add ¼ of the buttermilk and mix for another 30 seconds, until well incorporated. Continue alternating with the remaining dry ingredients and buttermilk. Beat for 3 minutes more.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake the cake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove the cakes from the oven and let cool slightly, then remove from the pans and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Make the frosting: In a large bowl, cream together the butter, cocoa powder, and salt with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until very thick and well incorporated, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Turn the mixer speed to low and gradually alternate adding the powdered sugar and milk. As the sugar is incorporated, increase the speed of the mixer. Add the vanilla and beat until the frosting is smooth and fluffy, about 1 minute.The frosting will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Bring to room temperature before frosting the cake.
  • Add a small dollop of frosting to a cake stand. Arrange four pieces of parchment paper around it. Place 1 cake round on the stand. Add a large dollop of frosting to the top of the first cake and spread evenly. Add the remaining cake layer on top and frost completely.
  • Decorate the top with rainbow sprinkles, if desired.
  • Remove the parchment paper. Slice and serve.

THE BEST BIRTHDAY CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



The Best Birthday Cake Recipe by Tasty image

We spent many weeks in the Tasty kitchen perfecting this birthday cake recipe. We tested every hack, every possible preparation method, and left no cake layer unfrosted. The result was a tender, moist, and vanilla-forward cake packed with unlimited sprinkles and a light and creamy buttercream.

Provided by Katie Aubin

Categories     Desserts

Time 4h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup sour cream, room temperature
3 large eggs, room temperature
3 large egg whites, room temperature
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
1 cup whole milk, room temperature
2 ¼ cups granulated sugar
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
3 ½ cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
½ cup rainbow sprinkles
6 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
3 lb powdered sugar
⅓ cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
rainbow sprinkle, for decorating
1 cardboard cake round, 8-inch
cake turntable

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly spray three 8-inch cake pans with nonstick spray. Line the bottoms with parchment paper rounds and spray again.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sour cream, eggs, and egg whites until evenly combined. Add the vanilla and milk and whisk until incorporated.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the granulated sugar and salt. Sift in the cake flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix on low speed to incorporate.
  • Cut the butter into tablespoon-sized pieces. With the mixer running on low speed, add the butter to the dry ingredients, one piece at a time. Continue mixing until a sandy, coarse meal forms, 3-4 minutes.
  • With the mixer running on low speed, pour in one-quarter of the wet ingredients at a time and mix to incorporate, scraping down the sides of the bowl between each addition. Continue mixing until the batter is smooth.
  • Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and gently fold in the sprinkles with a rubber spatula.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans, tapping the pans on the counter a couple of times to release any large air bubbles.
  • Bake the cakes for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean. 8. Set the pans on a wire rack and let the cakes cool completely, about 1 hour. Once cooled, run an offset spatula around the edges of the pans to loosen the cakes, then invert onto the rack and remove the parchment rounds.
  • Meanwhile, make the frosting: In a large bowl with an electric hand mixer (or in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment), whip the butter on medium speed until creamy, about 3 minutes.
  • With the mixer running on low speed, add the powdered sugar, about 1 cup at a time. Once incorporated, add the cream, vanilla, and salt. Increase the mixer speed to high and beat for 3 minutes, until the frosting is fluffy.
  • Assemble the cake: Using a large serrated knife, slice a thin layer off the top of each cake to create a flat surface. Discard the scraps.
  • Smear a bit of frosting onto an 8-inch cake round set on top of a cake stand, then place a cake layer on the round. Use a large offset spatula to spread an even layer of frosting over the cake. Place another cake layer on top and frost. Place the last cake layer, bottom-side up, on top and spread a thin layer of frosting over the top and sides of the cake to make the crumb coat. Refrigerate for 15 minutes, until the frosting is set.
  • Generously spread a thick, even layer of frosting over the top and sides of the cake. Decorate the cake with the remaining frosting and sprinkles as desired.
  • Slice and serve. Cake can be kept at room temperature for 2 hrs and refrigerated for 3 days.
  • Enjoy!

THE ULTIMATE FUNFETTI CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



The Ultimate Funfetti Cake Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: nonstick cooking spray, buttermilk, vanilla extract, vegetable oil, all purpose flour, baking powder, kosher salt, baking soda, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, unsalted butter, large eggs, large egg yolks, rainbow sprinkles, unsalted butter, cream cheese, kosher salt, powdered sugar, rainbow sprinkles

Provided by Katie Aubin

Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

nonstick cooking spray
1 ½ cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ cup vegetable oil
4 cups all purpose flour, or cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups granulated sugar
½ cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
1 cup unsalted butter, 2 sticks, room temperature
4 large eggs
4 large egg yolks
½ cup rainbow sprinkles
2 cups unsalted butter, 4 sticks, room temperature
1 lb cream cheese
kosher salt, a pinch
3 cups powdered sugar
½ cup rainbow sprinkles, for decoration

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl or liquid measuring cup, combine the buttermilk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
  • In a separate large bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and butter. Beat with an electric hand mixer on high speed until super light and fluffy, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the eggs and egg yolks one at a time, beating in between additions. Beat the batter until almost doubled in volume and very light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  • With the mixer on low, gently beat in a third of the flour mixture. Before it's fully combined, add half of the buttermilk mixture. Repeat with remaining flour and buttermilk until everything is well-blended and no lumps remain.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Spray 3 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pans with nonstick spray.
  • Add ½ cup (80 g) of sprinkles and gently fold into the batter with a spatula until well-incorporated.
  • Divide the cake batter among the prepared pans and place 2 pans on the top oven rack and 1 pan on the middle rack.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, rotating the pan on the middle rack to the top rack, and vice versa, halfway through baking, so the cakes bake evenly. The cakes are done when they are golden brown, pull away from the sides of the pans, and the tops spring back slightly when pressed.
  • Remove the cakes from the oven and invert them onto a wire rack to cool completely. (If you don't have a wire rack, let them cool in the cake pans on the counter.)
  • Make the frosting: In a large bowl, use an electric hand mixer on high speed to beat the butter, cream cheese, and salt. Mix until light and creamy, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the powdered sugar and beat on low speed to combine. Once the sugar is incorporated, beat on high speed until there are no lumps and the frosting is super white and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  • Place a dab of frosting on a cake stand or an inverted plate. Place a layer of cake on the cake wheel, then evenly spread frosting on top with an offset spatula. Place the next layer of cake on top of the frosted layer, and spread frosting on top. Add the last cake layer and lightly frost the entire outside of the cake to create a thin crumb coat.
  • Chill the cake in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the cake from the refrigerator and use the remaining icing to frost the cake in an even layer. Take the end of an offset spatula or knife and gently press it against the against the frosting at the bottom of the cake. Then, spin the cake and slowly raise the spatula after each rotation to create a ribbed effect. Smooth the top of the cake with the spatula.
  • Place sprinkles around the edge of the cake. Set a small cookie cutter, any shape you like, in the center of the cake and fill in with sprinkles. Gently remove the cookie cutter.
  • Enjoy!
