Ingredients

Cake:

  • 1 approx 15 ounce box white cake mix
  • 1 3.4 ounce box instant vanilla or cheesecake pudding mix
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup (237ml) milk (any kind or nondairy)
  • cup (79ml) vegetable oil
  • Red and blue food coloring

Frosting:

  • 1 cup (113g) powdered sugar
  • 1-3 tablespoons (15-45ml) milk (any kind or nondairy)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Red and Blue sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Generously grease and flour a 10 or 12” fluted bundt pan. (You can also use the kind of cooking spray that has flour in it.)
  • Mix cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, almondmilk, and oil in a large bowl using a hand mixer. Beat about 1 minute, or until the mixture is combined.
  • Separate the mixture into 3 bowls. Color one of them red, one of them blue, and leave one white. Alternate dropping colors of batter into your pan to form a red, white, and blue cake.
  • Bake for about 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the cake sit sit in the pan to cool for about 15 minutes, then turn it out onto a plate to cool completely.
  • Make the frosting by whisking the milk into the powdered sugar. Drizzle on cake and sprinkle with sprinkles.

Notes

  • Store loosely covered at room temperature. Cake is good for up to 3 days.
  • White cake mix is best so the colors don't change
  • Gel food coloring will produce a more vibrant color!
