Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.75 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 3 Large eggs
• 1 cup Low-fat milk
• 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 0.5 cup Sugar-free rainbow sprinkles
• 2 cups Powdered sugar (for frosting)
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened (for frosting)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for frosting)
• 2 tablespoons Low-fat milk (for frosting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This will take about 3-4 minutes with an electric mixer.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Alternately add the flour mixture and milk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.

Step 6

Gently fold in the Greek yogurt until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.

Step 7

Carefully fold in the sugar-free rainbow sprinkles, being mindful not to overmix as this can cause the sprinkles to bleed.

Step 8

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, turn them out onto wire racks to cool completely.

Step 11

While the cakes are cooling, prepare the frosting by beating together the powdered sugar, unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and low-fat milk in a medium bowl until smooth and fluffy. Add more milk if necessary to reach your desired frosting consistency.

Step 12

Once the cakes are completely cool, spread an even layer of frosting over the top of one of the cakes. Place the second cake on top, and continue to frost the top and sides of the entire cake.

Step 13

Decorate with additional sugar-free sprinkles if desired, and then slice and serve.
