Tie Dye Cake

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 2 cups white sugar
• 4 large eggs, room temperature
• 1 ½ cups self-rising flour
• 1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup buttermilk/regular milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• Food coloring

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Cream together butter and sugar.

3. Add in eggs one at a time.

4. Combine and sift flours, set aside.

5. Combine milk and vanilla.

6. Add flours and milk to butter mixture interchangeably, mix well.

7. Divide batter evenly into bowls according to how many colors you have.  Add in the food coloring to each bowl and mix until the batter is completely covered with the food coloring.  Feel free to add more coloring to reach your desired color.  Red is usually the hardest to mix.

8. Grease two pans (8″ or 9″) and flour them, or use parchment paper for the bottom.  Spoon each colored batter evenly (by spoonfuls or as you wish) into the pans.

9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean. 

TADA! Now you can make a plain vanilla cake into a fun exciting work of art!
