Cake Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it turns a golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Let it cool to room temperature.
- Cream the cooled browned butter with sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg whites one at a time, followed by sour cream and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed, then stir in the whole milk.
- Pour the batter into a lined 8x8 inch baking pan and bake for about 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- For the frosting, beat unsalted butter until smooth, then add confectioners' sugar alternately with milk until fluffy. Add food coloring to achieve the desired color.
- Spread the frosting on top of the cooled cake and add chocolate speckles for decoration.
- Slice into squares and serve.
