Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 12 ounce bag white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup Funfetti cake mix (heat treated)
- 1/4 cup sprinkles (jimmies work well)
- 15 ounces vanilla flavored melting wafers
Instructions
- Heat treat the cake mix: To ensure safety and eliminate risk of raw flour, heat treat the Funfetti cake mix before using it in the recipe.
- Prepare the pan: Line a square baking dish with parchment paper and coat the surface with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Melt butter: In a large pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter and spread it evenly over the entire bottom of the pan.
- Add white chocolate and condensed milk: Sprinkle the white chocolate chips evenly over the melted butter. Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly on top. Allow it to sit for a couple of minutes so the chips can warm up, then stir frequently until the chips have completely melted and combined.
- Add vanilla extract: Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the vanilla extract thoroughly to incorporate.
- Mix in cake mix: Add the heat treated Funfetti cake mix and stir well to combine into the chocolate mixture.
- Add sprinkles: Fold in the sprinkles gently, mixing until evenly distributed, then remove the mixture from heat.
- Set in pan: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Tap it gently on a firm flat surface so the mixture levels out evenly.
- Chill: Refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour to set before cutting.
- Cut and dip: Cut the chilled mixture into bite-sized squares. Melt the vanilla flavored candy coating wafers and dip each square, shaking off excess chocolate. Immediately decorate with additional sprinkles and allow to set before serving.
Notes
- Heat treating the cake mix is essential to ensure it’s safe to eat as it is not baked in the traditional sense in this recipe.
- You can substitute vanilla or white chocolate melting wafers if vanilla flavored wafers are unavailable.
- Keep the cake bites refrigerated until ready to serve to maintain their shape and texture.
- Use non-parchment lined surfaces carefully when handling sticky mixtures to prevent difficult removal.
- Customize sprinkles and decorations to match different occasions or celebrations.
