These comments are from their cookbook: "At Magnolia we decided to make our cake not quite a traditional yellow cake or a traditional sponge cake, given the use of whole eggs in our recipe. We're sure you'll agree this recipe is moist, delicious and makes a beautiful layer cake or cupcakes for birthdays or any celebration. Frost with pink buttercream icing and lots of colored sprinkles as we do, and feel as though you're at your seventh birthday party all over again!"

  • Let cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from pans and cool completely on wire rack.
  • If you're making cupcakes, line two 12-cup muffin tins with cupcake papers.
  • Spoon the batter into the cups about three-quarters full.
  • Bake until the tops spring back when lightly touched, about 20 to 22 minutes.
  • Remove cupcakes from pans and cool completely on a rack before icing.
  • When cake has cooled, ice between the layers, then ice top and sides of cake.
  • To make the icing - place the butter in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add 4 cups of the sugar and then the milk and vanilla.
  • Beat until smooth and creamy.
  • Gradually add the remaining sugar, 1 cup at a time, until icing is thick enough to be of good spreading consistency (you may very well not need all of the sugar).

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor and texture of your frosting.
  • Make sure your butter is at room temperature. This will help it cream together with the sugar more easily.
  • Don't overbeat the frosting. Overbeating can cause it to become grainy.
  • If you're using a stand mixer, start on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium. This will help to prevent the frosting from splattering.
  • If you're making a large batch of frosting, you can divide it into smaller batches and store it in the refrigerator or freezer. Just be sure to bring it to room temperature before using.
  • Magnolia Vanilla Buttercream Frosting can be used to frost cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and other desserts. It's also delicious on its own as a spread for toast or English muffins.
