DIRECTIONS
CAKE
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Add all cake ingredients to a bowl (adding flour little by little) and mix to combine
Grease two 4 inch pans with oil (I used coconut oil) and a sprinkle of flour to prevent the batter from sticking.
Divide the batter evenly into the two pans and cook for 32-38 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cakes cool
Cut the tops off of the cake so both tops are flat
FROSTING
Mix together the cream cheese, yogurt, maple syrup, and food coloring until smooth and combined.
Frost the first cooled layer of smash cake. Add second layer on top and frost top and sides of cake. Optional: use cake decorating tool linked HERE and top with sprinkles or any other decorations of choice
