Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Makes 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup dry yellow cake mix
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles plus extra for topping
  • graham crackers pretzels and strawberries, for serving

Instructions

  • Beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and pale, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the powdered sugar and dry cake mix; beat on low speed until no dry streaks remain.
  • Add the vanilla extract and beat until fluffy, about 1 minute.
  • Fold in the sprinkles by hand just until combined; overmixing bleeds the color into the dip.
  • Scoop into a serving bowl and top with a fresh handful of sprinkles right before serving so they stay bright.
  • Chill for 15 minutes if there is time, though this one tastes just as good at room temperature.
  • Serve with graham crackers, pretzels and strawberries.

Good to Know

Use the sprinkles meant for baking rather than the ones meant for ice cream; they hold their color better and bleed less.
