Comment préparer Pretty Checkerboard Cake

Preheat your oven to the temperature specified in your checkerboard cake pan instructions. Grease and flour the pans thoroughly.
Prepare your cake batter according to the recipe below, dividing it evenly into two bowls.
Tint one bowl of batter with your desired color (e.g., cocoa powder for chocolate). Leave the other bowl its natural color.
Spoon alternating scoops of each batter into each section of the prepared checkerboard pans, ensuring an even distribution.
Bake according to the pan instructions, usually around 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cakes are completely cool, prepare your buttercream or lemon icing.
Frost the top of one cake layer evenly with icing.
Carefully place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake, creating a smooth, even finish.
Decorate as desired (sprinkles, fresh fruit, etc.) and enjoy your beautiful checkerboard cake!
