Ingredients
1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles
1–2 tbsp milk (if needed)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (for frosting)
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1–2 tbsp milk (for frosting)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit and line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until a thick dough forms.
3. Fold in chocolate chips and rainbow sprinkles using a spatula.
4. Press dough evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
5. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until edges are golden and center is set.
6. Allow to cool completely in the pan for 20 minutes.
7. Prepare frosting by beating butter, sugar, cocoa, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
8. Pipe frosting around the edges and garnish with extra sprinkles. Slice and serve.
Notes
Do not overbake; the center should stay soft for a chewy texture.
Ensure the cake is completely cool before frosting to prevent melting.
Customize with different cake mix flavors like funfetti or chocolate.
