Notes

  • If your molds are plastic or metal, consider omitting the frozen whipped topping because it can make release difficult. Substitute heavy whipping cream or plain yogurt if needed. The goal is about 3 cups total of milk, yogurt, or whipped cream combined with the cake mix.
  • To keep popsicles cold when serving, lay them on a tray of ice or use a metal tray to prevent premature melting.

How to Make Funfetti Cake Batter Popsicles

Ingredients

  • 1 box Funfetti cake mix (about 15 ounces)
  • 2 1/2 cups whole milk (or adjusted total of milk/yogurt/heavy cream to reach ~3 cups with other dairy)
  • 1/2 cup frozen whipped topping (or substitute heavy whipping cream or yogurt)
  • 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles
  • Popsicle sticks and silicone popsicle molds

Instructions

  1. Combine the Funfetti cake mix and milk in a blender. Blend on low speed until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  2. Gently fold in the frozen whipped topping (or your chosen substitute) and the rainbow sprinkles. Mix just until incorporated so the sprinkles stay colorful and the mixture remains slightly airy.
  3. Pour or spoon the mixture evenly into your popsicle molds. Tap the mold gently to remove any air pockets.
  4. Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 5 hours, or overnight for best results.
  5. To remove the popsicles, gently wiggle each stick and, if needed, run the outside of the mold briefly under warm water to loosen.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy your creamy, cake-flavored Funfetti popsicles.
