Dip Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup vanilla cake mix, heat-treated
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles
For Serving

Instructions
- Prepare the Cake Mix: Spread the vanilla cake mix evenly on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes to heat-treat it. Once baked, allow the cake mix to cool completely before using.
- Cream the Base: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add Sugars and Vanilla: Incorporate the powdered sugar and light brown sugar into the cream cheese mixture, mixing well until fully combined. Stir in the pure vanilla extract for enhanced flavor.
- Combine Cake Mix: Gradually add the cooled, heat-treated vanilla cake mix to the cream cheese mixture. Beat on low speed until the cake mix is fully incorporated.
- Adjust Texture: Slowly add milk one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dip reaches a smooth and fluffy consistency suitable for dipping.
- Fold in Sprinkles: Gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles to evenly distribute the colorful bits without overmixing.
- Serve: Transfer the funfetti dip into a serving bowl. Optionally, top with extra sprinkles for a festive look. Serve immediately with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or animal crackers for dipping.
Notes
- Heat-treat the cake mix by baking it at 350°F for 5 minutes and allowing it to cool completely to ensure safety.
- For a lighter texture, replace half of the cream cheese with whipped topping.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
