Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, stir cake mix, rainbow candy sprinkles, butter, milk and egg until soft batter forms. Scoop 20 tablespoonfuls of batter onto ungreased large cookie sheet.
  • 2
    Bake 8 to 10 minutes or just until cookies are set. Remove from cookie sheet; cool completely.
  • 3
    Spread frosting on bottom of 1 cookie; top with second cookie, bottom side down.
  • 4
    Roll edges of frosting in confetti candy sprinkles. If desired, top each with a birthday candle.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Rainbow candy sprinkles are added to the batter and offer a bright, party-like feel. If you don’t have rainbow sprinkles in your pantry, feel free to omit them. The cookies will still bake up perfectly and taste totally delicious.
  • tip 2
    Mix it up! Try making this recipe with any of your favorite cake and frosting flavors!
