How to Make Homemade Funfetti Cake
- Preheat the oven to 350. Butter three 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper. Or these work great as cupcakes, put cupcake liners in muffin tins.
- Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the egg whites and buttermilk and set aside as well.
- In the bowl of a stand-mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy,about three minutes.
- Beat in the vanilla extract. With the mixer running, add in 1/3 of the flour mixture, followed by 1/2 of the buttermilk mixture. Continue alternating the flour and milk, adding another 1/3 of the flour mixture, the remaining buttermilk, and then the rest of the flour.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary, and then beat the batter on medium for about a minute to make sure it's well incorporated. Turn off the mixer, and gently stir in the sprinkles.
- Divide the batter between the prepared pans, and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the cake is golden, springy to the touch, and a tester inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean. Or 20-22 minutes for cupcakes.
