When Taylor Swift famously sang, “bakers gonna bake, bake, bake, bake, bake," we're convinced she was channeling the energy of that iconic 2014 Fourth of July bash where she debuted her legendary American flag cake. Originally inspired by Ina Garten’s classic recipe, this patriotic dessert became an instant pop-culture staple. Ready to channel your inner Swiftie? Scroll on to see how we recreated this delicious throwback for your next celebration.Scroll for Taylor Swift's 4th of July cake recipe!How To Make Taylor Swift's Flag CakeIngredients For the Cake:— 9 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature— 1 1/2 cups sugar— 3 extra-large eggs at room temperature— 1 cup sour cream at room temperature— 3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract— 1 1/2 cups flour— 1/6 cup cornstarch— 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt— 1/2 teaspoon baking sodaTools For The Cake:— electric mixer with paddle attachment— strainer or flour sifter— 9-inch x 13-inch cake panInstructions:1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Butter and flour a 9-inch x 13-inch cake pan (or, cough, a casserole dish if you can't find one).2. Using an electric mixer with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar on high speed until it is light and fluffy.3. On medium speed, add the eggs, followed by the sour cream and vanilla. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue mixing until the batter is smooth.4. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt. Then add this mixture to the batter in the electric mixer, mixing on low speed until just combined.5. Pour the batter into your prepared pan, then evenly spread it with a spatula. Bake in the center of the oven for 20 to 30 minutes. When a toothpick comes out clean, it's ready. Take it out of the oven and let it cool to room temperature.Pro Tip: If you plan on transferring your cake out of the cake pan after baking, line your pan with parchment paper instead of buttering and flouring it.How To Decorate Taylor Swift's Flag CakeIngredients For The Icing:— 2 half-pints raspberries (Feel like switchin' it up?
