  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cornstarch. With the mixer running at low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 3 different parts.

  4. Once combined, gently fold in the white chocolate chips and ½ cup of sprinkles using a rubber spatula.

  6. Allow the cake to cool completely on a wire rack at room temperature before frosting.
