I have been making this cake for years. My Mom gave me the recipe that she had clipped off a Betty Crocker white cake mix box years ago. It’s my favorite way to make white cake because it’s as simple as a box mix but tastes over the top!

I have a genuine love for sprinkles!

I have a problem and a love for them. As in I hoard them and shop for them even when I don’t need them. Sprinkles make me happy, all sizes, colors and shapes! Always put your sprinkles on your icing before it dries – sprinkles stay in place and stick better!

So let’s talk about why this is a 3 layer cake……because I refuse to actually measure batter! After this baked I realized that one cake was twice as big as the other so I leveled them off using my handy dandy cake leveler, adjusted the leveler to split the bigger cake!

Don’t get all worked up about even size layers, go with the flow – it’s cake! I figure if God can’t make boobs the same size on an individual human I can’t be expected to have perfectly sized layers on my cake!

Pretend you did it on purpose or measure your batter – it’s all up to you!

This cake can totally be made in a 9×13 pan as well, so if your thing is not dirtying 2 cake pans messing with stacking cakes this cake is still doable!

The key is to enjoy making and eating this cake, not stress over it!
