So you remember how I made those Wheat Thins? Well I’m kinda of going along with that theme of making yummy stuff at home that you would traditionally buy at the store. So here is is. 

FUNFETTI CAKE!!!

Really, is there any cake that’s better? Okay, some people could convince me it’s  a nice chocolatey cake is better- but funfetti…that stuff, I just can not get enough of. 

I’m sure you can all tell it’s just a regular white cake recipe with a bunch of sprinkle. But for some odd reason, it just tastes a trillion times better!!!

If we are really truly friends, you will trust me on this and make this. Right now. GOOO!!
