Method
Base Layer Preparation
Creaming the Butter and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and softened unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
Adding Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the creamed butter and sugar, mixing until just combined.
Incorporating Eggs and Vanilla
Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, until fully incorporated.
Baking the Base
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Colorful Glaze Preparation
Mixing the Glaze
In a medium bowl, combine the powdered sugar and milk. Stir until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Adding Color
Divide the glaze into separate small bowls and add a few drops of different food coloring to each bowl. Mix until the desired colors are achieved.
Glazing the Base
Once the base layer has cooled completely, drizzle the colorful glaze over the top, allowing it to create a 'shatter' effect.
Decoration and Serving
Adding Toppings
Sprinkle the rainbow sprinkles and edible glitter generously over the glazed surface for a festive finish.
Cutting and Serving
Allow the glaze to set for about 10 minutes, then cut into squares and serve.
