Ingredients
- All-purpose flour: 3 cups
- Granulated sugar: 2 cups
- Baking powder: 3 teaspoons
- Baking soda: 1 teaspoon
- Salt: 1 teaspoon
- Unsalted butter, softened: 1 cup
- Eggs: 4 large
- Milk: 1 cup
- Vanilla extract: 2 teaspoons
- Pink food coloring (gel preferred)
- Frosting of your choice (vanilla or cream cheese)
- Sprinkles and decorations for Hello Kitty features
Instructions
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in pink food coloring until you achieve your desired shade.
- Bake the Cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour your Hello Kitty shaped cake pan. Pour the batter into the pan, filling it about two-thirds full. Bake for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Frost and Decorate: Once the cake is completely cool, frost with your favorite frosting. Decorate with sprinkles, candies, and other Hello Kitty features.
Notes
- Use gel food coloring for vibrant colors.
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature.
- Don’t overbake the cake to keep it moist.
- Use a serrated knife to level the cake if needed.
- Chill the cake slightly before decorating to help the frosting set.
