End-of-the-Rainbow Cake

Ingredients

• 1 box of white cake mix
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 4 eggs
• 3 tablespoons of water
• Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple food coloring
• 2 (8-ounce) packages of cream cheese, softened
• 2 sticks of butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 6 cups of powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup of heavy cream or milk

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, oil, eggs, and water. Beat until smooth. Divide the batter evenly between six separate bowls.
3. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl of batter and mix until the desired color is achieved. Pour each color into its own cake pan.
4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely.
5. In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. Slowly add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the cream or milk until the frosting is light and fluffy.
6. To assemble the cake, place one layer of the white cake on a cake stand or plate. Frost the top of the cake with a thin layer of the cream cheese frosting. Place a layer of the red cake on top of the white cake. Frost the top of the red cake with a thin layer of cream cheese frosting. Repeat with the remaining cake layers, ending with the purple cake. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.
7. Serve and enjoy!
