Rainbow Cake Bites

This was originally meant to be just a rainbow cake, but the cake was not cool enough before it was taken out of the pan so it turned into Rainbow Cake Bites!

Ingredients

1 box of extra moist white cake mix

1 1/4 cups of water

3 egg whites (not important, I used 2 eggs)

1/3 vegetable oil

Instructions

You'll mostly follow the instructions on the cake box, but I'll write them here anyway.

1.  Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease your pan, or pans, generously. 

2.  In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, eggs, and oil.

3.  Our the cake mix into 6 bowls evenly.

4. Using food coloring, make the batter a different color in each bowl.  I used red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.

5.  Pour the mix into your cake pan in the order of the rainbow.

6.  Bake the cake for the appropriate amount of time based on the chart below..

Two 8” round layers	35 – 40 min
Two 9” round layers	30 – 35 min
One 13” x 9” pan	35 – 40 min
One 10” or fluted tube pan	45 – 55 min
24 – 30 cupcakes (1/2 full)	20 – 25 min

Cool cake in pan for 10 to 20 minutes, when removed from pan cool the cake topside up.  After the cake is completely cooled you can frost and decorate it.  

I cooked this with a friend, and we didn't let the cake cool long enough.  This is what happened.

Awkward.

So to improvise we cut it into pieces and made Rainbow Cake Bites.

They were still just as good and were almost easier to eat than actual pieces of cake.  And you could choose if you wanted frosting or not, whatever you liked. One modification my friend and I made was we used 2 entire eggs, not just egg whites.  We wanted a bit more flavor in our cake and it worked really well.Enjoy!!
