*Ingredients*
- 1/4th cup Yoghurt at room temperature
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- Pinch of Salt
- 3/4th stick Softened Butter
- 1 cup + 2tbsp all-purpose flour
- 3/4th cup milk at room temperature
- ½ cup Sugar
*Frosting*
- 1 and ½ cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 and ½ stick Softened Butter
- Heavy Cream for loose frosting
- Sprinkles
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- Pinch of Salt
Instructions To Prepare The Cake
*Cake*
- Take a bowl, add softened butter, vanilla extract and sugar to that bowl. Mix them to form the cream.
- Now add yoghurt to that mixture and combine well.
- Take another bowl, add dry ingredients like baking powder and all-purpose flour. Mix them well.
- Now, add the dry mixture to the cream along with milk in parts and combine well. Do not overbeat the mixture; it will turn into a bread texture and not cake.
- To prepare the birthday cake, you need to preheat the oven. Now, line the 8-9 inches cake pan with parchment paper and add the mixture.
- At high power, place the cake pan into the microwave for about 5-8 minutes. First, for 5 minutes, keep the cake and check with the toothpick whether the cake is baked or not.
- If not in 5 minutes, then continue baking for 2-3 minutes more at high temperature.
- Once the cake is baked, let it cool for 10-15 minutes before frosting.
*Frosting*
- Take a bowl and beat vanilla extract and butter until softened and fluffy.
- Once done, add powdered sugar to it and continue beating it until a smooth cream is formed.
- If you want to prepare a loose frosting, then you can add heavy cream to it.
- Now, take the cake and cover it completely.
- Add sprinkles at the sides, and it is ready to serve.
*You can prepare the frosting of the birthday cake one week ahead of time and keep it in an air-tight container. Before using, bring it to room temperature and whip again.*
