What's a party without cake? Dress up your birthday or holiday cake with these easy decorating ideas. Some fancy up the outside of the cake with frosting, candy or fruit, while others use simple layering tricks to make the inside shine. Not a fan of vanilla on vanilla? We've got tons of delicious frostings you could swap in! Try our classic chocolate buttercream or our peanut butter frosting for an irresistible take on the classic.

Ingredients

Buttercream

  • Pinch of kosher salt

  • 1/4 cup Heavy cream

  • 1 tsp. Pure vanilla extract

  • 1/4 cup Sour cream

  • 6 cups Powdered sugar

  • 1 1/2 cups Butter, softened

Cake

  • 1/2 cup Sprinkles, plus more for garnish, if desired

  • 1 1/4 cups Milk

  • 1 tsp. Kosher salt

  • 2 tsp. Baking powder

  • 1/4 cup Cornstarch

  • 3 cups All-purpose flour

  • 1 tbsp. Pure vanilla extract

  • 4 Large eggs

  • 2 1/4 cups Granulated sugar

  • 1 1/2 cups Butter, softened

Method

  • 01
    Make cake: Preheat oven to 350℉ and line three 8" cake pans with parchment paper.
  • 02
    In a large bowl using hand mixer (or in the bowl of a stand mixer), beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla and mix until combined.
  • 03
    In another large bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating until just combined. Pour in the milk and mix until fully incorporated. Add remaining dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in sprinkles.
  • 04
    Divide batter evenly between prepared cake pans. Bake until slightly golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • 05
    Meanwhile, make buttercream: in a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat butter until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add powdered sugar, sour cream, vanilla, heavy cream, and salt and beat until smooth.
  • 06
    Assemble cake: Place the bottom layer of the cake on your serving platter and spread with buttercream; repeat with the second layer of cake. Place the last layer of cake on top, then frost the entire cake with buttercream. Garnish with more sprinkles, if desired.
