Rainbow Cake
This cake is a little time consuming to prepare but so simple to make and fun to serve.
All you need is 1 box of white cake mix with all ingredients to make it and gel food coloring.
Make the cake according to box directions
Split the batter into 6 equal parts (or however many colors you would like)
Then color each bowl a different color.
I use gel coloring because it makes the color more vibrant after it is cooked.
In a round cake pan scoop out half the batter of each color one on top of the other. Pour your first color into the middle of your pan then your next directly on top of that one and so on until you have used all colors. The top batter will push the bottom batter out towards the edges.
This is what it will look like!
Then pour the other half of each colored batter into another round cake pan. I did mine the opposite way for fun!
Then bake them according to the box directions!
And this is what they will look like after they have been baked!
Decorate as desired...
Then enjoy!!!

Refrigerator Crescent Rolls
Ingredients
3/4 cup butter or margarine
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup water
5 cups all-purpose flour (total)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 packages RapidRise yeast
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
Directions
In large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, granulated sugar, undissolved yeast and salt.Heat butter, milk and water until warm (105 to 115 F) (Cindy's note: I microwave these in a measuring cup for about 1 min 20 seconds). Gradually add to dry ingredients; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally.Add 2 eggs and 1/2 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed. With spoon, stir in enough remaining flour to make very stiff batter. Refrigerate batter for 2 hours or up to 2 days.Punch dough down; divide in half. On floured surface, roll each to 15-inch circle. Cut each circle into 12 pie-shaped wedges (for my kids, I cut 16 wedges, total 32 rolls). Roll up wedges from wide ends and curve to form crescents. Place rolls, with points down, on 2 large greased baking sheets. Cover; let rise in warm place until doubled in size, about 30 to 40 minutes.
Bake at 375 for 15 minutes or until done, switching positions of sheets halfway through baking. After removing pans from oven brush with butter.
