Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Lightly butter and flour (or spray) a 9x13-inch pan.
Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, sugar and extracts light and creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
3/4 Cup Unsalted butter,
1 Cup Sugar,
1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract,
1/4 teaspoon Almond Extract
With mixing speed on low, add the eggs and egg white, beating after each addition.
2 Large Eggs,
1 Large Egg White
In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
1 1/2 Cups Cake Flour,
1/2 Cup All-Purpose Flour,
1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder,
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda,
1/2 teaspoon Kosher Sea Salt
With mixing speed on low, alternate adding the dry ingredients with the buttermilk, taking care not to overmix.
3/4 Cup Buttermilk
Using a rubber spatula, fold the sprinkles.
1/2 Cup Rainbow Jimmy Sprinkles
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading into an even, smooth layer.
Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cake is golden brown on top and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool before frosting.
To prepare the frosting
In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the butter until light and creamy, about 2 minutes.
1 Cup Butter
Add the vanilla, salt and powdered sugar, mix until large crumbs form, then slowly pour in the heavy cream.
1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract,
Pinch Salt,
3 Tablespoons Heavy Cream,
3 1/2- 4 Cups Powdered Sugar
Gradually turn speed up to medium-high and beat for 2-3 minutes or until fluffy.
Scoop the frosting into the center of the cake, then using a offset spatula, spread over the cake into an even layer.
Garnish with sprinkles if desired.
Sprinkles
Cut and serve, enjoy for up to 3 days at room temperature.
