Rainbow Tiered Cake Recipe

Would you like to bake something that is not only fun, but easy?  Your family and/or friends will be impressed.

Ingredients:

• 2 boxes - Duncan Hines "Classic White Cake Mix
• Vegetable Oil **
• Water **
• 3 Eggs **
• 4 Containers - Duncan Hines White Frosting
• Food Coloring Set
• Rainbow Sprinkles

** Since you'll be using 2 box of cake mix, you'll need to double up on the measuring / quantity of the following ingredients (vegetable oil, water, eggs).


Directions:

1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2.  Pour both cake mixes in a large bowl.  Add the vegetable oil and water -- begin mixing.  Then you'll add 6 egg whites -- mix until cake is formed and smooth.

3.  Take the cake batter and separate into 5 small mixing bowls.  You'll then add 4-6 drops of food coloring into each mixing bowl.  Stir with a mixing spoon until the color develops and looks evenly mixed.  You may add more food coloring if you wish in order to the color that you want.

4.  Once all the small mixing bowls have been mixed with the colors, you'll need to evenly butter 5 separate cake pans.  Pour the colored batter into each cake pan.

5.  Place the cake pans into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes.  You can check if cake is done by using a toothpick - place it in the center...if it comes out clean, your cake is done.  Then you can remove the cake pans from the oven.  Flip each cake pan onto a baking rack to allow them stand and cool.

6.  When they are cool, take a sharp knife and cut off the round tops of each layer to make sure the cake layers stack on each other without tipping over.  As each needs to be flat on top and bottom in order to stack them properly.

7.  Begin by icing the bottom layer.  Stack the next layer and repeat until all are stacked.  Once all the layers are stacked, then you can frost the sides of the cake.

8.  Add the rainbow sprinkles (or whatever kind of sprinkles you'd like) while the frosting is still wet.


Hope you enjoy your tasty Rainbow Tiered Cake.
