Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup champagne
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup champagne (for frosting)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (for frosting, softened)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the champagne, butter, eggs, and vanilla to the dry ingredients and mix until well blended.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the frosting, beat together the butter and powdered sugar until creamy, then add the champagne and mix until smooth.
- Once the cakes are completely cool, spread frosting between the layers and over the top and sides of the cake.
- Decorate with additional champagne or edible glitter, if desired.
Notes
- For a stronger champagne flavor, you can use a dry champagne in both the cake and frosting.
- This cake can be made a day in advance and stored in an airtight container.
