Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just blended.
-
Divide the batter equally into six bowls. Add food coloring to each bowl and mix until desired color intensity is achieved.
-
Spoon the colored batters into the prepared cake pans, creating layers of different colors.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
-
Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once cooled, frost the cake layers with buttercream frosting and decorate as desired.
