INGREDIENTS

    • For the cake
    • 1 box vanilla cake mix
    • 1 cup water
    • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
    • 3 eggs
    • 2 tablespoons multicolored sprinkles
    • 8 pint mason jars
    • For the frosting
    • 2 cups whipped cream, handmade or store brand
    • 4 ounces cream cheese
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla
    • Additional multicolored sprinkles

    INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Preheat your oven to 350˚F.

    2. Follow the box directions for making the cake batter, then add the multicolored sprinkles to the mix. Pour into a greased 13-by-9-inch baking pan and bake 23-28 minutes.

    3. Remove the cake from the oven and let cool to room temperature.

    4. To make the frosting, use a hand mixer to combine the whipped cream, cream cheese, and vanilla. Chill in the fridge.

    5. To assemble, use a round cookie cutter just smaller than the mouth of the mason jar to cut rounds from the sheet cake. Place a spoonful of the whipped cream cheese frosting at the base of the mason jar, top with some multicolored sprinkles, then with a round of the funfetti cake. Repeat the layer, finishing with more frosting and sprinkles.
