Cake Batter Blondie Bars – chewy blondies filled with rainbow sprinkles, topped with buttercream frosting, and sprinkled with more sprinkles!
Cake Batter is one of my favorite flavors! Some of my other favorite recipes are Birthday Cake Fudge, Funfetti Muddy Buddies, and Funfetti Cake Mix Cookies!
Whenever I take the kids to self-serve froyo, I always get the same 3 yogurts.
Cake batter, cheesecake, and red velvet cake.
I like cake.
I like anything that tastes like cake.
If Lay’s decides that the next weird chip flavor is cake batter, you better beat me to the store because I’m buying every bag.
Ingredients
- Baking powder
- Salt
- Flour
- Sugar
- Brown sugar
- Unsalted butter
- Eggs
- Vanilla extract
- Butter extract
- Rainbow Sprinkles
- Powdered sugar
- Milk
Instructions
- Prepare. Preheat the oven to 350F. Spray a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray or line with foil and spray with cooking spray for easy cleanup.
- Combine dry ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk together the baking powder, salt, and flour. Set aside.
- Combine wet ingredients. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the sugar, brown sugar, and butter. Add the eggs, vanilla, and butter extract, and beat until combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Stir in sprinkles.
- Transfer to pan. Press the dough into the prepared pan. (The dough will be sticky; spray your hands with cooking spray to keep it from sticking it you.)
- Bake. Bake for 22 to 24 minutes. They will be slightly golden, but still have the slightest jiggle in the center. They’ll set as they cool. Cool completely before frosting.
- Make the frosting. Using an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until smooth. Slowly add in the powdered sugar and mix until crumbly. Add the vanilla and milk and mix until smooth. Frost the bars. Top with sprinkles and cut into bars.
- Stove. Store covered at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Best eaten at room temperature within 5 days.
