Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking pan by greasing it well to prevent the cake from sticking.
- Soak eggs in warm water for about 10 minutes to bring to room temperature.
- Cream together the unsalted butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed for 4-5 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add in the room temperature eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined and smooth.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, instant pudding mix, and salt in a separate bowl.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with cream soda, mixing until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the mousse, whisk together the instant pudding mix and heavy cream until thick and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
- To make the frosting, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth, gradually mix in powdered sugar and cream soda until fluffy.
- Cut circles from the cooled cake using a cookie cutter for the base of the jars.
- Layer the cake circles, butterbeer mousse, and frosting into jars, finishing with frosting on top and optional sprinkles.
