Notes
Some ingredients from the recipe are not specified in regard to measurement, but can be modified to your taste.
Ingredients
- 1 stick melted butter
1/2 cup neutral oil
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
Some type of flavoring, as desired
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3 drops green food coloring
2 drops yellow food coloring
Honey, maple syrup, or any other liquid sweetener, as desired
Egg whites and sugar for "dish soap," as desired
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, mix melted butter, oil, and sugar. Beat with a whisk until just combined.
- Add in the 3 eggs, mix thoroughly, and then gently beat in the milk.
- Mix in your flavoring (if using).
- Using a sieve, sift in the flour. Add the baking powder and salt, and mix until smooth.
- Divide the batter into two smaller bowls, using a ratio of 1/3 and 2/3.
- Using your food coloring, color the larger amount of batter with the green, and the smaller amount with the yellow.
- Transfer the mixtures to two square cake pans.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, being careful that the cakes do not brown, and using a toothpick to make sure they are done.
- Let cool before trimming.
- Using a serrated knife, cut the tops of the cakes to create a "fuzzy sponge" effect. Cut them to the shape and size of a dish sponge.
- With your honey, maple syrup, or liquid sweetener of choice, drizzle it on top of your cut-out yellow cake as an adhesive.
- Place the accompanying green cake on top of the yellow cake to create a dish sponge effect.
- Under-whip egg whites and sugar together to create fake dish soap. Drizzle on top of your finished product!
