Ingredients
Scale:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
¾ cup milk
Buttercream frosting
Colored sprinkles or edible glitter
Fresh fruit or chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a mini cake pan by greasing it lightly or lining it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, and stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Divide the batter equally into the mini cake pan, filling each mold about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, use buttercream frosting to top each mini cake.
