Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray the inside of each jar with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- Divide batter evenly between five small bowls. Tint each bowl of cake batter with plenty of food coloring until nice and bright. I used red, yellow, orange, green, and blue to make a rainbow effect.
- Spoon batter into jars, layering one color at a time. Make sure the jars are only filled about 2/3 of way to allow for expansion while baking. Place the 4 jars in a shallow baking dish, and add about 1/4 inch of water to the bottom of the baking dish. Place in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. Be sure to watch them carefully so they don't get too brown!
- Remove jars and allow to cool completely. The cakes will expand while baking, so you will need to scoop out a small portion from the top of each cake before adding frosting. Add on frosting and sprinkles. Serve immediately or cover with a lid and store in the fridge. Enjoy!
