What is Funfetti Dip?
Funfetti dip is a sweet, no-bake dessert dip reminiscent of birthday cake frosting or Dunkaroos (from the 1990s), that many kids would find in their lunch boxes at school.
This recipe is made with cool whip, greek yogurt, vanilla and cake mix. Then, when you mix in the sprinkles, it adds the perfect amount of crunch!
It tastes just like cake batter mixed with frosting. This colorful, easy-to-make party treat is best when it contains a bunch of sprinkles. For serving, I suggest graham crackers, animal crackers, or cookies or pretzels for a salty and sweet combination.
