FUNFETTI CAKE CHEESE BALL RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until combined. Then add in the Funfetti cake mix, sugar, and powdered sugar and beat until combined. Place the mixture on a large piece of plastic wrap. Bring up all the corners of the plastic wrap and wrap into a ball. Freeze the ball for about 1 1/2 hours or until it is firm enough to keep its shape. Place the rainbow jimmies on a flat plate and roll the unwrapped cheese ball in the jimmies. Make sure to press the jimmies into the cheese ball until it is fully covered. Place the ball on a serving dish, cover with plastic wrap and freeze the cheese ball for another 2 hours or overnight. If frozen overnight, thaw for 20 to 30 minutes before serving.

FUNFETTI CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Butter and line a 20cm loose-bottomed cake tin. Put the biscuits in a food bag and bash to crumbs with a rolling pin, or blitz in a food processor. Transfer to a bowl and mix in the butter. Tip into the prepared tin and press down firmly into an even layer. Chill in the fridge for 30 mins, or until set.
• Beat the soft cheese and icing sugar together with an electric whisk until smooth. Tip in the cream and vanilla, then continue to beat until everything is fully combined and has thickened to the consistency of thick whipped cream - this can take 4-5 mins so just persevere until thickens which it will do eventually. Stir in 4 tbsp of the sprinkles and spoon the mixture over the biscuit base. Tap the tin on a work surface to make sure there are no air bubbles, then smooth the surface with a spatula or the back of a spoon. Chill for at least 5 hrs or overnight.
• Bring the cheesecake out of the fridge to come to room temperature 30 mins before serving. Sit the tin on top of a can, then pull the sides of the tin down. Carefully slide the cheesecake onto a serving plate, then remove the baking parchment and the base of the tin. Decorate with the remaining sprinkles.

FUNFETTI CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and grease and line 4 x 20cm cake tins. If you don't have 4, halve the sponge recipe and bake in 2 batches.
• Put the sugar, butter and vanilla paste in a large bowl and beat with an electric whisk (or in a table top mixer) until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs gradually, beating between each addition until fully incorporated. Add a tbsp or 2 of flour if the mixture looks like it's curdling.
• Sift in the flour and baking powder with a tsp of salt and fold into the cake batter. Pour in the milk and beat to loosen the mixture. Scatter over the sprinkles and ripple through the cake batter before dividing between each cake tin. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and the sponge springs back when you press it lightly. Swap the tins around in the oven after 15 mins to ensure they cook evenly. Cool on wire racks completely before icing.
• Meanwhile, make the icing by beating the butter with half of the icing sugar until combined and fluffy. Add the cream cheese and the rest of the icing sugar, beating again until fully combined. Drizzle over the vanilla paste and beat until incorporated. Put a large round nozzle into a piping bag and spoon in the icing.
• When the cakes have cooled put a blob of icing onto a cake board and sit 1 of the sponges on top. Pipe blobs of vanilla icing in a circle covering the whole base of the sponge, then top with the next sponge. Repeat with all 3 layers, scattering over some extra sprinkles on the top. Serve in slices.
