Cake Batter Cannoli Dip
The other day, I was randomly craving cake batter and so I wanted to make a fun, summery sort of dip featuring this flavor. Cannoli is another big fav of mine. I love that creamy filling and crunchy exterior. This Cake Batter Cannoli Dip is like a mash up of these two flavors and textures. You've got that creamy filling, those birthday cake vibes with the sprinkles in there, the white chocolate chips, and then those crunchy waffle cone pieces for dipping. This recipe was so fun! It was so easy too. My boys absolutely loved this, and it took no time at all to throw together. This would be perfect for a party, potluck, or just a fun snack for the kids!
Equipment
Ingredients
For the cake batter cannoli dip:
- ½ cup Funfetti Cake Mix
- 8 oz Cream Cheese softened
- 1 cup Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ½ tsp Almond Extract
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- ½ cup Whipped Cream
- ¼ cup White Chocolate Chips
- 1 ½ tbsp Rainbow Sprinkles
For serving:
- 1 tsp Rainbow Sprinkles
- 1 tbsp White Chocolate Chips
- Waffle Cones broken into pieces
- Pretzels
Instructions
To prep the cake batter:
- Preheat the oven to 350℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Spread the Funfetti cake mix out on the baking sheet and bake it for 6-8 minutes, until it temps out to 165℉.
- Set aside to cool completely.
The reason that we have to heat-treat the cake mix is because raw flour can contain harmful bacteria. Cake mix can also contain raw powdered eggs, and so heat-treating it is essential in things like cold dips and other no bake recipes.
To make the cake batter cannoli dip:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Next, add the ricotta, vanilla extract, almond extract, cooled Funfetti cake mix, and powdered sugar, to the bowl and beat until smooth.
- Fold in the whipped cream, white chocolate chips, and rainbow sprinkles, using a rubber spatula to stir until combined.
- Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to chill and marry those flavors.
To serve:
- Spoon the cake batter cannoli dip into a serving dish, then top with more rainbow sprinkles and white chocolate chips.
- Serve with shattered waffle cones, pretzels, fruit, and whatever else you like. Enjoy!
