For the Cake:
Eggs
Granulated sugar
Butter

How to Make It
Step 1: Bake the Cake
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F and greasing two round cake pans. In a mixing bowl, beat together the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Then, add in the butter, milk, flour, baking powder, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined. Separate the batter into two equal portions and add food coloring to one of them, creating a vibrant pastel color.
Pour each batter into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely before removing them from the pans.
Step 2: Prepare the Frosting
In a separate mixing bowl, beat together the butter and confectioner's sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add in the milk and vanilla extract, and continue mixing until the frosting reaches your desired consistency. You can also add food coloring to the frosting to match the color of the cake layers.
Step 3: Assemble the Cake
Place one of the cake layers on a serving plate and spread a layer of frosting on top. Then, place the second cake layer on top of the frosting. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut out a small section from the center of the top cake layer, creating a small well.
Fill the well with an assortment of Easter candy, making sure to leave a small border around the edge. Cover the candy with the remaining frosting, creating a smooth and even layer.
Step 4: Decorate and Enjoy!
Now comes the fun part – decorating your Easter Piñata Cake! You can use extra frosting to create a border around the top of the cake, or add sprinkles and other decorations. Once you're happy with the design, refrigerate the cake for at least an hour to allow the frosting to set.
When it's time to serve, cut into the cake to reveal the hidden surprise of candy inside. Your guests will be amazed and delighted by this festive and delicious Easter treat!
So, what are you waiting for? Gather your ingredients and get ready to impress your loved ones with this Easter Piñata Cake. Happy baking!
