Easy 2-Layer Fondant Cake with a Marshmallow Twist
Here's a recipe for a simple, yet delicious, 2-layer fondant cake with a marshmallow twist:
Ingredients:
* Cake:
* 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
* 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
* 4 large eggs
* 1 cup milk
* 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* Frosting:
* 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
* 4 cups powdered sugar
* 1/4 cup milk
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* Pink food coloring (optional)
* Fondant:
* 1 (1 lb) package pre-made fondant
* 1 teaspoon shortening
* Edible glitter (optional)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cake:
* Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
* In a large bowl, combine cake mix, butter, eggs, milk, marshmallow fluff, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, then on high speed for 2 minutes.
* Pour batter evenly into prepared cake pans.
* Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
* Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto wire racks to cool completely.
2. Make the Frosting:
* In a large bowl, cream together butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
* Add milk and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
* Add a few drops of pink food coloring for a subtle pink hue (optional).
3. Assemble the Cake:
* Once cakes are completely cool, level the tops with a serrated knife if necessary.
* Place one cake layer on a serving platter. Spread half of the frosting evenly over the layer.
* Top with the second cake layer. Gently press down to secure.
* Frost the entire cake with the remaining frosting, smoothing with a spatula or offset spatula.
4. Roll and Apply Fondant:
* Lightly dust a clean work surface with powdered sugar.
* Knead the fondant with shortening until pliable.
* Roll out the fondant to a 1/4-inch thickness.
* Carefully drape the fondant over the cake, smoothing it out gently with your hands.
* Trim any excess fondant around the edges of the cake.
* Use a fondant smoother to smooth the fondant and remove any air bubbles.
* Sprinkle with edible glitter (optional).
Tips:
* Marshmallow Fluff: The marshmallow fluff adds a subtle sweetness and a touch of fluffiness to the cake. If you don't have marshmallow fluff, you can use 1/2 cup of mini marshmallows, but they will melt slightly during baking.
* Fondant: You can use store-bought fondant or make your own. If using store-bought fondant, make sure it is at room temperature before rolling it out.
* Decoration: Get creative with your fondant decorations! You can use cookie cutters to create shapes, or simply pipe decorative designs with frosting.
