Birthdays are a big deal in our home. Each year, I strive to make every child’s special day unforgettable by transforming the kitchen into a festive space filled with balloons and streamers, topped off with a delightful breakfast. And what could be more fitting for a birthday than pancakes that taste like cake, complete with colorful sprinkles? It doesn’t get much better than that.
The kids absolutely adored these pancakes, and I found myself sneaking bites throughout the morning, as the recipe yields quite a generous amount. I plan to freeze any leftovers (if they last through the day) for a fun treat later on.
Ingredients:
- 1 box of yellow cake mix (plus the required ingredients: eggs, water, and vegetable oil)
- 1/2 cup of colorful sprinkles
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 tablespoons milk
Instructions:
- Gradually add milk to the powdered sugar until you achieve your desired glaze consistency.
- Prepare the yellow cake mix according to the package instructions.
- Gently fold in 1/4 cup of sprinkles into the batter.
- Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto a hot skillet. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook until the other side is golden brown.
- Drizzle with the sugar glaze and top with additional sprinkles before serving.
