Birthday Cake Dip Variation ideas:
- Cake Mix. Try other types of cake mix instead of funfetti cake mix for a change. White cake mix, lemon and strawberry would all be delicious.
Chocolate fans might like a chocolate cake mix. It would be a yummy chocolate dip.
- Sprinkles. Use different color sprinkles for holidays- red and green, orange and black, pastels, patriotic colors etc. I would not use sugar sprinkles in this dip.
- Cool whip. Add cool whip to the mixture until it is the desired consistency. It will make the dip even more creamy.
- Vanilla yogurt. You can use this instead of cream cheese for a different flavor. This will also lighten up the dip.
- Mix-ins. Change the flavor and add a handful of mini chocolate chips, crushed graham crackers, crushed oreo cookies or anything else you like.
How to make Cake Batter Dip:
Step 1. You will need a large bowl. Add the whipped topping and cream cheese to the bowl and beat with a hand mixer or stand mixer until it is smooth and creamy.
Step 2. Next, add the cake mix and milk.
Step 3. Stir it together using a wooden spoon and not the mixer until combined.
Step 4. Add the sprinkles on top before serving.
Serving Suggestions:
- animal crackers
- graham crackers – Just break them into sticks. Try using chocolate graham crackers, cinnamon graham crackers or original.
- vanilla wafers
- fruit- strawberries, grapes, apple slices are some of our favorites.
- Pretzels- The sticks are perfect for dipping but any type will work.
- Teddy Grahams. We like using plain, cinnamon and chocolate.
- Sugar Cookie Sticks
