Here’s a straightforward guide to making your own Lamb Cake:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your lamb cake pan with butter or cooking spray.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.

4. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

5. Incorporate Dry Mixture: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.

6. Add Vanilla: Stir in the vanilla extract, ensuring everything is well blended.

7. Pour Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared lamb cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

9. Cool the Cake: Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then, gently turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Prepare the Frosting: In a separate bowl, mix the powdered sugar with a small amount of milk until the desired consistency is reached for frosting.

11. Frost the Cake: Once the cake has cooled completely, frost the entire surface with the prepared frosting.

12. Decorate: Press shredded coconut onto the frosting for a fluffy look, and add edible decorations for eyes and details as desired.
