This dip takes me back to eating Dunkaroos, the packaged icing dip where crisp met sweet, and the rest of the story got nibbled on, lol!
Today’s recipe is for those closet cake mixing bowl lickers who love to suck up all the possible goodness of cake mixes from the mixers, spoons, and spatulas used in cake prep.
Our fabulous spin on fabulous funfetti cake dip is reminiscent of licking the batter bowl, but there’s no egg in our recipe, no whipping cream, and no baking required!
We’ve subbed out the cake mix for other simple ingredients, still providing delicious flavors like the cake batter dip recipe, but you won’t need to run to the store for a box of Funfetti cake!
Ingredients For Your Sweet Creamy Confetti Dip

- butter
- vanilla
- sugar
- sprinkles
Our celebration dip with sprinkles is so good we are sure you will want to make it again and again. It is one of those recipes you can make on demand.
The recipe for the Easter dessert dip takes under 5 minutes to prepare. It requires only 5 ingredients, making it a spring night or day easy dessert (especially after hauling the kids to hockey tryouts, baseball games, tennis, etc.) You only need to make sure your cream cheese is on the softer side for mixing!
How To Make Unicorn Confetti Dip
The good news about making unicorn dip with fun, colorful sprinkles is that you won’t need food coloring, egg,funfetti cake mix/cake batter, whipped cream, or an oven!
You will need to use softened cream cheese and butter and combine them.
Then you will add in the confectioner’s sugar and the vanilla and mix again.
FOLD in the sprinkles and note, they bleed when they sit, so making this dessert right when you need to serve it as an on-demand dip is best.
Top off with more sprinkles and add the dippable around the bowl of unicorn confetti dip.
Serve.
Refrigerate ANY leftovers, as this is a dairy-based dessert.
