Ingredients You'll Need
To make this delicious baptism cake, you'll need the following ingredients: all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, butter, eggs, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and cream cheese.
Step-By-Step Instructions
To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Next, in a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the buttermilk and vanilla extract. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and pour the batter into the pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Making the Frosting
To make the frosting, beat together the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and beat until smooth. Spread the frosting on the cooled cake.
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the cake with sprinkles, if desired. Serve the cake and enjoy!
