This funfetti dip is reminiscent of vanilla cake batter. It combines funfetti cake mix for a nostalgic cake flavor with softened cream cheese for richness and a slight tang.

Whipped topping adds a light, fluffy texture and sweetness, while heavy cream ensures a decadent richness.

You’ll need:

• 1 box of funfetti cake mix
• 4 ounces of cream cheese, room temperature
• 1 (8-ounce) tub of Cool Whip whipped topping
• 1 cup of heavy cream

Substitutions And Additions

CAKE: You could substitute a different box of cake mix in this fun recipe. Pick your favorite cake flavor, such as cherry chip, for another fun spin on this treat.

SPRINKLES: Mix in extra sprinkles or add rainbow sprinkles on top of your funfetti cake mix dip before serving this delicious dessert dip.

FLAVOR EXTRACTS: To infuse unique flavors into your dip, consider adding a few drops of extracts like almond, mint, or orange.

How To Make This Funfetti Dip Recipe

Let’s walk through the handful of steps to making this yummy dessert dip.

STEP ONE: Before adding the raw cake mix, it is important to heat treat it. Pour the dry cake mix into a medium-sized heat-safe bowl.

Microwave the cake mix in two 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval. Allow the cake mix to cool completely before mixing it into the cream cheese.

STEP TWO: In a mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the cream cheese and whipped topping until the mixture is smooth.

STEP THREE: Add the box of cake mix and half of the heavy cream and mix, gradually adding in a bit more cream until you’ve reached the desired texture for the dip.

How To Serve This Funfetti Cake Dip

My favorite dippers with the funfetti cake dip are animal crackers, but anything that’s crunchy and a little sweet will be perfect.

You can enjoy it with animal crackers, teddy grahams, graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or even fresh fruit.

If I want to be on the “healthier side,” I will serve my funfetti dip with fresh fruit. I especially think it pairs well with fresh pineapple, strawberries, or grapes.

This is the perfect sweet dip that would be a great option to serve at birthday parties with its rainbow of color bits, and it will be a sure crowd-pleaser.

Storing This Funfetti Cake Batter Dip

Whether you’re planning ahead or have leftovers to preserve, here are some storage tips to ensure your dip stays as delightful as the day you made it.

MAKE AHEAD: If you want to get a head start on your party prep, you can make this funfetti dip ahead of time.

Simply prepare the dip as instructed in the recipe and transfer it to an airtight container.

Pop it in the fridge until you’re ready to serve, and it can be stored for up to 24 hours.

Just remember that the longer it sits, the more the colors from the sprinkles might bleed into the dip, so keep that in mind for presentation.

IN THE FRIDGE: It’s best to store funfetti dip in an airtight container and keep it cool in the fridge.

If you plan to serve it again, take it out about five minutes before serving it to let it soften just a little bit — and make it easier for dipping.

IN THE FREEZER: We don’t recommend freezing this tasty cake batter dip as the texture will change once thawed.

Notes

• Since the cake mix has uncooked raw flour in it that may have pathogens in it, it makes it not safe to consume raw. Heating it in the microwave will kill any pathogens and make it safe to use in this no-bake recipe.
• Make sure that your cream cheese and butter are very soft before mixing for a super smooth and creamy dip.
• This delicious dip can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator, in a covered container, if made ahead. If you do put it into the refrigerator for longer than 30 minutes, you may need to let it sit on the counter for 5 to 10 minutes to warm up a little prior to serving. Give it a good stir as well.
