Sprinkle Birthday Cake Muffins
Fluffy, SPRINKLE BIRTHDAY CAKE Muffins that taste just like birthday cake! This is a easy rainbow muffins recipe that is pretty and perfect for happy birthday parties and desserts! Kids LOVE these FUN muffins!
Sprinkles and bright colors make everything funner, that’s why I love baking with them! Rainbow Birthday Waffles, Sprinkled Butter Cookies, Confetti Cake Batter Brownies, and White Chocolate Toffee Recipe are some of my favorite colorful treats but now we’re adding a new member to the sprinkle family – Fluffy Birthday Cake Muffins!
These Birthday Cake Muffins are super fluffy, just like a birthday cake – and they taste just like it too! I include sprinkles inside the batter and then add additional sprinkles on top once in the muffin pan to give them a bright rainbow color all over!
These would be perfect for a Birthday Celebration, but they would also be great for just adding some cheer to a breakfast or bringing a snack gift to leave in the kitchen at work.
Don’t they look beautiful inside too?
Hope you enjoy!
