Ingredients

For the Cake:

• 1 white cake mix
• 1 (3.4 oz) box instant white chocolate pudding mix
• 1 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
• 4 large eggs
• ½ cup canola oil
• 1 cup milk
• ½ cup – ¾ cup rainbow sprinkles

For the Topping:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon milk
• 1-2 tablespoons rainbow sprinkles

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously spray a 12-cup bundt pan with nonstick baking spray, preferably one that includes flour for easy release after baking.
2. Mix the Cake Batter:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the white cake mix, instant white chocolate pudding mix, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), eggs, oil, and milk.
   • Beat the mixture on low speed for 1 minute to combine the ingredients, then increase the speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
3. Add the Funfetti Magic:
   • Gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles with a rubber spatula. Be sure to distribute them evenly throughout the batter for that fun burst of color in every slice.
4. Bake the Cake:
   • Pour the cake batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan, spreading it out with a spatula.
   • Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it.
5. Cool the Cake:
   • Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the bundt pan for 15 minutes. Afterward, gently turn the cake out onto a plate or cooling rack to cool completely before adding the glaze.
6. Make the Glaze:
   • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. The glaze should be thick but pourable.
   • Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake, allowing it to cascade down the sides for a beautiful finish.
7. Add More Fun with Sprinkles:
   • While the glaze is still wet, sprinkle additional rainbow sprinkles over the top for extra color and fun.

Tips for Success:

• Sprinkles Choice: Use jimmies (long, soft sprinkles) rather than nonpareils (small, hard sprinkles) in the batter. Nonpareils can bleed color into the batter, while jimmies hold their shape and color better.
• Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt: Both sour cream and Greek yogurt add moisture and richness to the cake. Choose whichever you have on hand.
• Glaze Consistency: Adjust the thickness of the glaze by adding more powdered sugar for a thicker consistency or more milk for a thinner drizzle.
