Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a dreidel-shaped cake pan or a rectangular cake pan if shaping manually.

2

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

3

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with milk. Stir in vanilla extract.

4

Divide the batter into two portions. Color one portion blue and leave the other white. Layer or marble the batters in the prepared pan.

5

Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

6

For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake and decorate with sprinkles and edible glitter.

7

If using a rectangular pan, once cooled, cut the cake into a dreidel shape using a template. Decorate as desired.

Chef's Tips

  • Pan Tip: If you don’t have a dreidel-shaped pan, bake the cake in a rectangular pan and cut it into shape after cooling.
  • Color Variation: Use different shades of blue for a more dynamic look.
  • Decoration: Add Hebrew letters or Hanukkah symbols with icing for extra festivity.
  • Storage: Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Serving: Pair with hot cocoa or tea for a cozy holiday treat.
