Ingredients

The following ingredients have 11 Servings
  • 1 Pillsbury Funfetti cake mix
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/4 cup butter (melted)
  • Pink food coloring
  • 3/4 cup sprinkles
  • 1/2 cup salted butter (softened)
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/2-2 tablespoons milk
  • Food coloring

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cake mix, egg, cream cheese and butter until it is all well combined. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. This makes about 44 balls. 
  • Roll the balls in sprinkles, then place them on a cookie sheet. Gently press down on the top of the balls to slightly flatten them. 
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Move the cookies to a wire rack to cool.
  • In a stand mixer bowl, with the mixer on medium speed, whip the butter for 2-3 minutes until it is almost white in color. 
  • Add in the powdered sugar, vanilla and 1 1/2 tablespoons milk. Add a drop of food coloring, if desired. Beat on low speed for 3-5 minutes, adding in another 1/2 tablespoon of milk if the buttercream needs to be thinner.
  • Spread or pipe frosting on half of the cookie. Place another cookie on top of the frosting to make sandwiches. Store in an airtight container.
