Description

A vibrant, showstopping dessert combining tangy cheesecake and colorful funfetti cake. Perfect for celebrations, it’s moist, creamy, and guaranteed to delight all ages.


Ingredients

Scale

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup milk
2 cups sprinkles (for funfetti layer)
For cheesecake layer:
24 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup sprinkles (for cheesecake)
1 (9-inch) crustless yellow cake or graham cracker crust base


Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9-inch springform pan with non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add softened butter using a stand mixer or electric mixer until crumbly.
Gradually add buttermilk, milk, and vanilla extract, mixing on medium speed until fully incorporated.
Fold in 2 cups sprinkles and pour the funfetti cake batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the funfetti cake cool completely.
While the cake is cooling, prepare the cheesecake layer. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar, then mix in eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully blended.
Add the sour cream, milk, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth. Gently fold in 1/2 cup sprinkles.
Carefully spread the cheesecake layer over the cooled cake. Bake for 10 minutes, then turn the oven off and leave the door slightly open for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
Let the cheesecake cake cool completely. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
Serve chilled, garnished with additional sprinkles if desired.

Notes

You can use a store-bought cheesecake crust base made of graham crackers if desired.
For an extra burst of flavor, serve with a simple vanilla glaze or whipped cream topping.
Refrigerate any leftovers for up to 4 days.
