#Recipes >> NO BAKE FUNFETTI ICEBOX CAKE
An easy, no bake icebox cake loaded with funfetti flavor! Only 10 MINUTES prep time and full of homemade cake batter flavor.
I love icebox cakes. No bake cookies. No bake desserts in general. They’re just hard to do wrong, you know? There’s no overbaking or underbaking — just a few simple ingredients that are thrown together in different ways with different flavor combinations.
When I originally was planning to make this recipe, I thought I would simply mix some cake mix into whipped cream and add sprinkles. How else could you get that cake batter flavor?
But when I opened my door to my secret cake mix stash, I just couldn’t do it. My goal is to bring you more recipes with real ingredients (and really, I feel like I do that 98% of the time already), and I figured cake mix is easily made from scratch.
So I checked out some recipes, and really the only ingredients that I would add would be flour and sugar, since the leaveners are completely unnecessary in a no bake dessert. I decided to bump up the funfetti flavor with a good dose of vanilla, and added just a touch of flour for that cake mix flavor — it also helps to thicken the whipped cream. If you find that weird, it is so easily left out and will be just as delicious without.
INGREDIENTS
- 18 square or 9-10 large graham crackers
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 3 tablespoons all purpose flour
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons vanilla
- ¼ cup sprinkles
INSTRUCTIONS
- Line an 8x8" pan with half of the graham crackers, making one layer, not overlapping, breaking to fit if needed.
- In a large bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Add the flour, sugar and vanilla and continue beating on high until stiff peaks form. Fold in sprinkles.
- Spread half of the whipped cream onto the graham crackers. Top with a second layer of graham crackers and spread with the remaining whipped cream.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 5-6 hours or overnight. Top with additional whipped cream and sprinkles if desired before serving.
- This cake can also be frozen completely and even served partly frozen!
