Prep Time 25 minutes mins
Cook Time 20 minutes mins
- 1 cup butter (softened) 8 oz/225 g
- 1¾ cups granulated sugar 14 oz/395 g
- 4 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 1 cup whole milk (at room temperature) 8 fl oz/240 ml
- 2 teaspoons almond extract
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups cake flour 12 oz/345 g
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup rainbow sprinkles 3 oz/85 g
- 1 recipe Funfetti Buttercream
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and butter and flour a 13 x 18-inch (33 x 46-cm) half-sheet pan. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or in a medium bowl with a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar together on medium-high speed for 3 minutes, until fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, and scrape down the bowl after each addition. Beat in the milk, almond extract, and vanilla extract.
In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together, then fold into the butter mixture until evenly mixed. Fold in the sprinkles.
Spread evenly in the prepared pan and bake for about 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool completely before frosting with Funfetti Buttercream. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
