How to Make Tye Dye Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Divide the batter evenly among three bowls. Add a few drops of different gel food coloring to each bowl, mixing until you reach your desired color intensity. You can also create more colors by mixing different colors together, like red and yellow to make orange.
- Pour each colored batter into a prepared cake pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer 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, frost the layers and decorate as desired. Consider swirling the frosting for an extra tie-dye effect!
