Equipment

  • Measuring Cups
  • Mixing Bowl
  • 13x18" Sheet Pan

Ingredients

  • 1 375- gram box chocolate cake mix plus box ingredients
  • 2 16- ounce tubs chocolate frosting
  • 1 cup rainbow sprinkles nonpareils

Instructions

  • Make your cake batter in a large bowl according to the instructions on the box and transfer to a half sheet pan measuring 13”x18” that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Mine called for 1 cup of water, ½ cup oil, 3 eggs and a 350F oven and I baked it for 13 minutes (which is about half that a 9x13 pans calls for).
  • Once the cake fully cools, cut circles out of it with the container you chose to make finish your cakes in. I used 8 ounce mason jars and make 2 cake rounds for each of them which gave me a total of 13. Depending on the size of your cups/containers, the final yield may vary.
  • Lightly press each cake circle down then and spoon or pipe your frosting on top to fill the entire cup (I used about 2 ounces each, but it depends how tightly you pack the cake); go slightly higher so you can level it off with a knife and create a flat surface.
  • Place sprinkles on a shallow bowl or plate and dip the frosting into the sprinkles, pressing down lightly, to make sure they stick well.
