class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-group\"><h4 class=\"wprm-recipe-group-name wprm-recipe-instruction-group-name wprm-block-text-none\">Make the Cake:<\/h4><ul class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions\"><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-0-0\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Preheat your oven to 350&deg; F (175&deg; C) and line a 9&times;13-inch rectangular cake pan with parchment or foil. Spray the pan well with nonstick cooking spray or brush it with homemade cake goop.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-0-1\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Prepare the cake batter according to the directions on the box. Scrape it into your prepared pan and bake it according to the box directions, about 30-35 minutes. Allow the cake to cool completely before assembling the cake cups.<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-group\"><h4 class=\"wprm-recipe-group-name wprm-recipe-instruction-group-name wprm-block-text-none\">Make the Frosting:<\/h4><ul class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions\"><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-1-0\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">While you wait for the cake to cool, prepare the frosting. Combine the whites, powdered sugar, and salt in the bowl of a large stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Mix everything together on low speed, until the sugar is moistened and no dry patches remain. Turn off the mixer, scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula, then turn the mixer to medium-high speed. Beat on medium for 5 minutes until white, shiny, and thick.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-1-1\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Switch to a paddle attachment and turn the mixer to medium-low.  Start adding the softened room temperature butter in large chunks, about 2 tablespoons at a time. Once all of the butter is incorporated, add the vanilla extract and mix it in. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bottom and sides once more. It is normal for the frosting to look lumpy or broken at this point.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-1-2\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Turn the speed to medium and beat the buttercream for 10 minutes. At the end, you&rsquo;ll have a frosting with a wonderfully light and creamy texture.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-1-3\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Remove &frac14; cup of frosting and color it with blue food coloring until it is a light sky blue. Take a piping bag and fit it with a medium round tip, like Ateco #12. Smear a thin layer of blue frosting on the inner surface of the piping bag. Add white frosting to fill the bag, and massage the bag between your hands so the blue and white frosting gets mixed.<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-group\"><h4 class=\"wprm-recipe-group-name wprm-recipe-instruction-group-name wprm-block-text-none\">Assemble and decorate:<\/h4><ul class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions\"><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-2-0\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Once the cake is completely cool, flip it out of the pan onto a cutting board. Cut the cake into thin strips, then cut the strips into small &frac12;-inch cubes.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-2-1\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Fill the bottom of a candy kettle with a layer of cake cubes. Press down or break the cake into smaller pieces if needed to make sure the bottom of the kettle is covered.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-2-2\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Pipe a layer of buttercream on top of the cake, then top the buttercream with another layer of cake cubes. Finally, top the cake with a second layer of buttercream, coming up to the top of the kettle. Smooth the buttercream into an even layer that&rsquo;s flush with the kettle top.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-2-3\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Pipe two round swirls of frosting on top of the kettle on opposite ends to represent clouds. If you are using buttercream rainbows, make sure the rainbows are frozen, then peel one off of the parchment backing and press it firmly into the buttercream clouds. Alternately, use a paper rainbow cupcake topper or a rainbow candy strip on top.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-38742-step-2-4\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Finish by adding gold dragee sprinkles in between the clouds. Repeat to assemble the remaining cake cups. Serve these Pots of Gold at room temperature. The buttercream rainbows might start to droop after several hours if the room is warm, so these are best served within an hour or two of assembly. Store extras in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n\t<div id=\"recipe-video\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-video-container-38742\" class=\"wprm-recipe-video-container\"><h3 class=\"wprm-recipe-header wprm-recipe-video-header wprm-block-text-none wprm-align-left wprm-header-decoration-none\" style=\"\">Video<\/h3><div class=\"wprm-recipe-video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/x9nxakf_dYQ\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n\t<div id=\"recipe-38742-notes\" class=\"wprm-recipe-notes-container wprm-block-text-normal\"><h3 class=\"wprm-recipe-header wprm-recipe-notes-header wprm-block-text-none wprm-align-left wprm-header-decoration-none\" style=\"\">Recipe Notes<\/h3><div class=\"wprm-recipe-notes\"><ul>\n<li><strong>About pasteurized egg whites:<\/strong> this recipe calls for pasteurized egg whites. It is safe to consume egg whites without cooking them, as long as the whites you buy are pasteurized. To save time, I buy them in a carton&ndash;look for 100% egg whites, not liquid egg substitute. If you cannot find them in a carton, you can buy pasteurized eggs and separate them yourself.
