Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 0.5 tsp baking soda
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tbsp blue food coloring
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the food coloring.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the creamed mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined.
- Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use vanilla extract. You can also frost the cake with your favorite buttercream frosting.
