Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a cake pan.
-
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and peppermint extract.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk.
-
Divide the batter in half. Mix red food coloring into one half.
-
Pour the plain batter into the prepared cake pan. Spoon the red batter on top and swirl gently with a knife to create a marbled effect.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar with a few drops of water to create a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.

Sprinkle crushed candy canes on top. Serve and enjoy!
