Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Pink food coloring

For the frosting:

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Pink and white frosting

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  2. Add milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth. Add pink food coloring to your desired shade.
  3. Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. Pour batter into the pan.
  4. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. While the cake cools, prepare the frosting: Beat softened butter until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and milk, alternating until well combined. Stir in vanilla extract.
  7. Divide frosting into two bowls. Leave one white and tint the other pink.
  8. Once the cake is completely cool, trim the top to create a flat surface.
  9. Frost the entire cake with a layer of pink frosting.
  10. Use white frosting to create Hello Kitty’s face, including eyes, nose, and whiskers. Get inspiration from Hello Kitty cake designs online.
  11. Add any additional decorations you like, such as a pink bow or sprinkles.

Notes
