Instructions:

Cake:

• Preheat your oven to 350* and prepare your pan.
  • Cupcakes: put your 24 liners in the muffin tin
  • Cakes: line your 2 ~ 8.5″ inch cake pans with parchment paper .
• In your mixing bowl add in your dry ingredients and mix (flour, sugar, baking soda and salt).
• Make a crater in the middle of your dry ingredients so you can add in your wet ingredients (white vinegar, grapeseed oil, vanilla, and water. Mix until well combined.
• Pour your batter into your prepared pans.
  • Cupcakes: I like to use my ice cream scooper and fill them a little above half way.
  • Cakes: I use my frosting spatula to scrape into my pans and fill each a little above half way.
• Put in the oven to bake!
  • Cupcakes: 15 – 20 minutes
  • Cakes: 30 minutes
• Done when toothpick comes out clean! Let completely cool before frosting.

Frosting:

• Place your room temperature butter into the mixer and whip until smooth and creamy
• Add in your powdered sugar a cup at a time, and mix until smooth and well combined
• Pour in your Vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of milk or water, mix well.
• *If you feel your frosting is too stiff to pipe go ahead and add in your 2nd tablespoon of milk or water, a half at a time to make sure it’s to your approved consistency.
• Scoop your frosting into your prepared piping bag and frost away!
• If you plan to add sprinkles, immediately add them otherwise they will just fall off

ENJOY!
