Ingredients:

  • 2 ½ cups (315g) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks/227g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 ¾ cups (350g) granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk
  • ½ cup rainbow sprinkles
  • 8 ounces (227g) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup (1 stick/113g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 cups (360g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2-4 tablespoons milk or cream, as needed

Instructions:

  1. Grease and flour the bundt pan thoroughly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the sprinkles until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45-55 minutes.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.
  10. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  11. Add milk or cream, one tablespoon at a time, until the frosting reaches your desired consistency.
  12. Once the cake is completely cool, frost it with the cream cheese frosting. A simple dollop in the centre is Nothing Bundt Cake's style.
