Ingredients

  • 185 g Unsalted Butter Melted
  • 150 g Light Brown Soft Sugar
  • 130 g Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Medium Free Range Eggs
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 215 g Plain Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • Approx 4-6 different gel food colourings

For the Topping

  • 200 g White Chocolate Melted
  • Sprinkles Optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Line an 8 inch square baking tin.
  • Combine the melted butter, granulated sugar and light brown sugar in a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Combine on high speed for 3-5 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and combine again. 
  • Fold in the flour and baking powder until all combined. Depending on how many colours you want, put a few tablespoons of the batter into small bowls/large mugs. Add a few drops food colouring to each and stir. You should end up with between 4-6 bowls of different coloured batter.
  • Add the batter to the lined pan one tablespoon at a time, taking from different colours for each scoop. Don't swirl together or do anything to combine. Once all the batter has been added, bake for 30 minutes.
  • Let cool on a wire rack before making the topping. Melt the white chocolate in the microwave in 20 second intervals, making sure it doesn't burn. Then pour over the cake. Add any sprinkles/glitter. Let set before slicing!
