If you’re in need of an easy birthday dessert, look no further than this cake batter fudge. It’s wonderfully sweet, rich, and colorful, making it the perfect way to celebrate! It’s a fun change up from the typical cake and cupcakes for special occasions.

You will love how quick and easy this white chocolate fudge recipe is. It’s made on the stovetop in just 15 minutes, so there’s no oven and no baking required. Since this is a freezer fudge recipe, you’ll just pop it into the refrigerator or freezer to set.

This funfetti fudge is also easily customizable. If you want to skip the cake mix, you can remove it from the recipe completely (just increase the almond extract to 1 teaspoon). If you’d like to use a different topping, you can swap the sprinkles for something else. Try it with crushed nuts, cookies, or chocolate chips instead!

What is funfetti fudge made of?

This birthday cake fudge recipe is made with only 7 ingredients:

• White chocolate chips: You can use any type of white chocolate. If you would like to make vegan fudge, make sure you use dairy-free white chocolate chips. If you are not vegan, you can use regular white chocolate.
• Sweetened condensed coconut milk: This is a dairy-free alternative to sweetened condensed milk. It’s sweet and creamy like the original, but made with coconut milk instead. I love and recommend the Nature’s Charm brand!
• Cake mix: Use only the dry mix, not the prepared batter. You can use yellow cake mix, white cake mix, or even funfetti cake mix.
• Rainbow sprinkles: This white chocolate fudge is decorated with sprinkles. It also creates a festive funfetti appearance.
• Vanilla extract: This creates a sweeter, richer vanilla flavor.
• Almond extract: This sweet extract helps create a cake batter flavor.
• Salt: Salt balances all of the other ingredients.

How to make cake batter fudge with white chocolate chips

Step 1: Melt white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed coconut milk

First, line an 8×8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper.

Then, warm a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add sweetened condensed coconut milk and white chocolate chips. Mix together until completely melted. Be careful not to burn the white chocolate. Note: You could use a microwave for this step, but I highly recommend using a saucepan instead.

Next, reduce the heat to low. Add yellow cake mix, vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt. Whisk together until evenly melted and combined.

Step 2: Chill the cake batter fudge in the refrigerator

After, remove the saucepan from heat. Pour mixture into the baking dish. Top with rainbow sprinkles.

Lastly, chill the fudge in the refrigerator for 4 hours, or until completely set. Slice into 16 bars. Enjoy!
