Ingredients

Scale

1 box yellow cake mix (approx. 15.25 oz / 432g)

1/2 cup / 113g unsalted butter, softened
1.5 cups / 180g powdered sugar
1/4 cup + more for rolling sprinkles

Instructions

Beat Cream Cheese & Butter: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter until wonderfully smooth and creamy. A sturdy spoon works great if you don’t want to pull out a mixer!
Add Powdered Sugar: Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until it’s fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth. This helps prevent lumps.

Chill Dough: Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. This step is crucial to prevent sticky dough and help your Cake Batter Bites hold their perfect shape.
