  3. Add sugar to the creamed butter and beat until fluffy.
  4. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Add vanilla extract and mix well.
  6. Alternately beat in dry ingredients and milk – starting and ending with the dry ingredients.
  7. Add melted white chocolate and mix until just incorporated.
  8. Add a few drops of gel food colouring until the desired pink colour is acheived (usually 1/8 to 1/4 tsp is enough).
