Recipe Review: Funfetti Brownies

You've all had Funfetti cake or cupcakes. Now they have cookies, whoopie pies and all kinds of other crap you can make from a Funfetti box.

But have you ever tried Funfetti brownies?

You should!

They are so easy to make, and even easier to fall in love with. While they're beautiful and cakey on the outside, it's the crunch of the white chocolate chips on the inside that wins me over. Sometimes I make it with regular chocolate chips, too, which I think is even better.

If you have been successful with making Funfetti cake, these brownies will be a breeze. Try it and let me know what you think.

I found this recipe last year on the Six Sisters Stuff blog, and make them all the time. Try them this weekend for something fun, easy, and different. Let me know how it goes!

Funfetti Brownies

Ingredients:

• 1 box yellow (or Funfetti!) cake mix
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1 egg
• 1/3 – 1/2 cup milk
• 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles (if you use a yellow cake mix, add these in)
• 1/2 cup white chocolate chips 
• Sprinkles for the top
• Frosting (see recipe below)

Directions: Combine the cake mix, oil, and egg in a large bowl. Add the milk slowly – you want the batter to remain as dense as possible. Then mix in the rainbow sprinkles and white chocolate chips. Spray pan (either 8×11″ or 9×9″ pan) with non-stick cooking spray. Dump batter in pan and spread to the edges. Bake for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees. (They will be a little soft/gooey in the middle- just let them sit for about 20-30 minutes and they will set up. But I guarantee that you will not be able to wait that long.) Frost when cooled (optional . . . these taste amazing without frosting, but I am a serious frosting lover, so I added just a little bit).
Frosting:
1/4 cup margarine or butter, softened
2-3 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar (more or less depending on how thick/runny you like it)
3-4 drops red food coloring to get desired pink color (optional)
Combine all ingredients until well-blended. Spread on top of blondies.
