Cake Batter Blondies

Do you want to make the world’s easiest “homemade” dessert that’s sure to please any crowd, young or old? If your answer is yes, then cake batter blondies is probably the recipe for you. Six ingredients, a bowl, a spoon, a pan, an oven. You don’t even have to get out your mixer.

What you need…

1 box yellow cake mix

1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil

1 large egg

1/3 -1/2 cup milk {less is better}

1/2 cup sprinkles {the fun part is choosing color, size, style – I used a mix of two}

1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Spray an 8×8 or 11×7 baking pan with nonstick spray {use a smaller pan for thicker bars; use the larger pan for thinner bars}.

Combine first four ingredients in a large bowl. Add the milk slowly. You want to cake batter to be as dense & thick as possible. Mix in the sprinkles and white chocolate chips. Pour into prepared baking pan, sprinkle a few more sprinkles on top, and bake for 25-30 minutes until edges are just turning brown.

Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes so the center sets, before cutting into squares.

*The blondies will look like they are not fully done because the center will be quite gooey, but that’s what you want! After about 30 minutes of cooling, they will be easy to cut using a serrated knife.

*Do not use BLACK sprinkles swirled into the blondies. It will turn the batter black before baking.
