Ingredients
Dip Ingredients
- 1 box white cake mix (about 15.25-16.25 oz.)
- 1 tub Cool Whip (8 oz.)
- 1 ¼ cups vanilla yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup red, white and blue sprinkles (plus more for topping)
Dippers
- Vanilla wafers
- Graham crackers
- Animal crackers
- Pretzels
Instructions
- Optional Cake Mix Baking: If desired, preheat your oven to 350°F. Spread the white cake mix evenly on a sheet pan and bake for about 5 minutes. This step intensifies the cake flavor. Allow the baked cake mix to cool completely before proceeding.
- Mix Base Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cooled cake mix, Cool Whip, vanilla yogurt, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture for 2-3 minutes until it becomes smooth and creamy.
- Incorporate Sprinkles: Gently fold in the red, white, and blue sprinkles to maintain their shape and add colorful bursts to the dip. Transfer the dip into your preferred serving bowl.
- Chill: Refrigerate the dip for at least 20 minutes to allow it to firm up and for the flavors to meld together.
- Add Final Touches and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle extra red, white, and blue sprinkles on top for a festive look. Serve the dip alongside your choice of dippers such as graham crackers, pretzels, animal crackers, or vanilla wafers.
- Storage: Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week to maintain freshness.
