Instructions

1. Blend the base: Add the frozen yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, and cake mix to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.

2. Adjust consistency: If you prefer a thicker shake, use less milk. If you prefer a thinner shake, add a little more milk.

3. Mix in sprinkles: Remove the blender blade (if possible) and gently fold in the sprinkles using a spatula so they don't get crushed or alter the color of the shake.

4. Taste and sweeten: Taste the shake and add sugar substitute if you desire extra sweetness.

5. Serve: Pour into a tall glass, and top with sugar-free whipped cream and extra sprinkles.

Notes and Tips

Heat-treat the cake mix before using it raw. Spread it out on a baking sheet and bake at 300°F for 5–7 minutes (stirring every 1.5 minutes) until its internal temperature reaches 165°F. Allow it to cool completely before use.

Sprinkle Tip: Confetti quins (flat, round sprinkles) hold their color best. Avoid multi-colored nonpareils—they dissolve quickly and bleed their color into the shake.

Milk Alternatives: Fat-free milk keeps it lightest. Unsweetened cashew or almond milk also works very well and makes the shake creamy. *   Dairy-Free Option: Use dairy-free frozen yogurt and plant-based milk.

Make it Thicker: Freeze your Greek yogurt for 30 minutes before blending so it feels creamier and more like ice cream.

Fun Glass Decoration: Apply a little honey or corn syrup to the inner rim of your glass, then roll it in sprinkles for an extra festive look.

Here is a 'Skinny Funfetti Milkshake' recipe—all the fun, none of the guilt!

The secret to keeping this 'skinny' (low-calorie) is using fat-free vanilla frozen yogurt instead of regular ice cream—swapping frozen yogurt for ice cream cuts down on calories and contains about half the fat. The cake mix itself gives it that authentic 'Funfetti Birthday Cake' flavor—the cake batter delivers the Funfetti taste without the need to add actual cake pieces to the shake. 

Some important points to keep in mind:

Your choice of sprinkles matters: 'Confetti quins' hold up the best. The 'jimmies' found in the ice cream aisle are also a good option. Colorful 'nonpareils' tend to dissolve, and their colors bleed almost immediately, so choose your sprinkles wisely.

Protect the sprinkles: If your blender features a removable blade, take it out before adding the sprinkles to prevent them from getting crushed—which could give the ice cream an odd color—and then use a spatula to mix them in.

Raw cake mix safety: To eliminate harmful bacteria present in raw cake mix, heat it to 165°F. Preheat your oven to 300°F, spread the mix onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake for 5–7 minutes, stirring every 1.5 minutes.
