You probable have them already in your kitchen, and even if you don’t, you can easily find them in the grocery. I love simple and easy recipe like this.

I’ve used my chocolate ganache to frost the cake, just you can also use other frosting. I have other frosting recipe in my website, check out the Frosting item in the menu. Chocolate ganache is the easiest and decadent frosting that I love to use, that is why this is always my go to for simple cakes. Now, the sprinkles, I love how the sprinkles gave this cake a nice festive feel. It so colorful, and although simple it looks fun. You can also add some whipped cream on top for each slice, that would be a nice touch too.

This cake is very soft and moist, and it stays moist even after few days at room temperature or inside the refrigerator because it uses oil rather than butter. Don’t worry, even without the butter the cake taste great, promise! Let’s get started!
