Steps:
- Heat oven to 325°F. Grease 2 (1 1/2-quart) ovenproof glass bowls (8 inches across top) with shortening; coat with flour. Place a small circle of cooking parchment paper in bottom of each bowl for easier removal of cake.
- In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt; set aside. In large bowl, beat sugar, butter, vanilla and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high speed 5 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat flour mixture into sugar mixture alternately with milk on low speed, beat just until smooth after each addition. Pour into bowls.
- Bake 60 to 70 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in bowls 20 minutes; remove from bowls to cooling racks. Remove parchment paper. Cool completely, about 2 hours.
- Using serrated knife, cut rounded top off cakes to make a level surface. Use 2 1/2 to 3-inch round biscuit cutter to hollow out a small hole in the center of one of the cakes (do not go all the way through the cake). For second cake, use biscuit cutter to cut a hole completely through the cake layer. Place first layer, cut side up, on cake stand. Fill cut out portion of cake with assorted multi-colored candies. Frost cut side of cake with 1/4 cup frosting and top with remaining cake to make a round cake. Fill hole to the top with remaining candies.
- Thinly frost side and top of cake with 1 cup of the frosting. Divide remaining frosting among 4 small bowls, and mix frosting with pink, blue, yellow and green food colors, one color in each bowl. Place frosting in 4 separate pastry bags fitted with couplers. Rotate ruffle tip between bags as you work. Frost cake, working in horizontal circles, alternating colors every row.
