Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Yellow cake mix (store-bought or homemade, heat-treated)
- 0.5 teaspoon Butter extract (optional, for extra cake flavor)
- 0.5 cup Rainbow sprinkles
Directions
Step 1
Ensure the bowl of your ice cream maker has been placed in the freezer for at least 12-24 hours before starting.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar until the sugar is fully dissolved, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract, yellow cake mix, and butter extract (if using). Whisk until the cake mix is completely incorporated with no lumps remaining.
Step 4
Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
Step 5
Once the mixture is chilled, set up your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Step 6
Pour the cake batter mixture into the ice cream maker and churn for about 20-25 minutes, or until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Step 7
During the last 2 minutes of churning, slowly add the rainbow sprinkles, allowing them to scatter evenly throughout the ice cream.
Step 8
For firmer ice cream, transfer the churned mixture to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 2-4 hours.
Step 9
Scoop, serve, and enjoy your Creamy Birthday Cake Batter Ice Cream!
