Rainbow Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe

A couple of years ago I made a rainbow cake for my daughters birthday. This was before I was blogging so the pictures are pretty sparse & basic.

I combined 2 white cake mixes and then divided the cake batter into 6 bowls and added food coloring.

I didn't have 6 round cake pans so I just bought extra foil pans at the grocery store.

I spread a layer of cream cheese frosting between each cake layer and then all over,

it was a pretty tall cake.

I used smarties & marshmallows for the rainbow!

It was super yummy and a big hit!

Cream Cheese Frosting

Ingredients

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese

and butter until creamy. Mix in the vanilla, then

gradually stir in the confectioners' sugar. Store in the

refrigerator after use.
