Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup vanilla cake mix (dry)
1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles (funfetti)
Whipped cream (for topping)
Extra sprinkles (for topping)
Cherry on top (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until the sugar dissolves completely.
Gradually add the dry vanilla cake mix to the mixture, whisking until fully incorporated.
Fold in the rainbow sprinkles gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
If using an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into the machine and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (usually about 20-25 minutes).
If you prefer a no-churn option, pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until firm.
Once ready, scoop the Birthday Cake Ice Cream into bowls or cones. Top with whipped cream, extra sprinkles, and a cherry, if desired.
