Ingredients:

Serving

2/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
3 cups sifted cake flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 1/4 cups milk
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
6 drops red food coloring
3 drops oil of peppermint
easter dawn frosting

Directions:

Cream butter; gradually add sugar, beating well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix well after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
Pour two-thirds batter into 3 greased and floured 8-inch round cake pans.
Add food coloring and oil of peppermint to the remaining batter. Spoon pink batter equally into batter in 3 pans. Swirl pink batter into white batter to obtain a marbled effect.
Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove layers from pans, and let cool completely.
Spread Easter Dawn Frosting between layers and on top and sides of cooled cake.
