    Ingredients

    • 2  Betty Crocker Super Moist White Cake mixes, batter mixed up as directed
    • purple food coloring (I used "neon" purple from McCormick)
    • 2 containers Betty Crocker Whipped White frosting

    Directions

    1. 1Divide cake batter into three bowls (about 2 3/4 cups of batter each).
    2. 2Tint with the food coloring for dark, medium and light purple. For the dark, I used 30 drops. For the medium, 15 drops, and the light I used 6 drops.
    3. 3Pour the batters into a greased and floured 8 or 9 inch round cake pan.
    4. 4Bake at 325 degrees for about 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the middle of each layer comes out clean.
    5. 5After baking, cool pans on a rack for 15 minutes. Run a knife around each pan and remove from pan, inverting on a rack to fully cool.
    6. 6Once the layers are cool, slice the rounded tops off each layer, making each layer uniform.
    7. 7Place dark purple layer on serving platter first, frost middle. Add the medium purple layer, and so on. Frost top and sides.
    8. 8Refrigerate until about 1 hour before serving time.
    9. 9To serve, slice and plate.
