How To Make pink champagne cake

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  • Step 2
    In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt; set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar 3 to 5 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and beat in egg whites one at a time.
  • Step 3
    Mix in food coloring. Beat in flour mixture and Champagne in three alternating additions, starting and ending with flour to prevent curdling. Pour batter into pans and bake 35 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Step 4
    For the frosting: In a mixing bowl, beat butter 1 minute. Gradually add the powdered sugar, Champagne, sugar, milk, vanilla and food coloring; beat until smooth and creamy.
  • Step 5
    Once cake has cooled completely, place bottom layer on a cake plate and spread half the frosting overtop. Add top layer and cover with frosting.
