Ingredient

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ Yellow Cake Mix
3/4 cup butter, melted
2 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 container (1.75 oz) Betty Crocker™ rainbow mix sprinkles (about 1/3 cup)
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 cup from 1 tub (16 oz) Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy Vanilla Frosting (from 16-oz container)
1 container (12 oz) Cool Whip frozen whipped topping, thawed
2 boxes (4-serving size each) Jell-O® French vanilla-flavor instant pudding & pie filling mix
3 cups cold milk
12 golden birthday cake flavor creme OREO® Cookies, coarsely crushed

Instructions

Step 1
Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom of 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.

Step 2
In large bowl, beat cake mix, melted butter, eggs, water and vanilla with spoon until well blended. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the sprinkles.

Step 3
Bake 24 to 28 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.

Step 4
In large bowl, beat cream cheese and frosting with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl frequently. Beat in 2 cups of the whipped topping. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the sprinkles. Spread over baked base.

Step 5
In medium bowl, beat dry pudding mixes and milk with whisk about 2 minutes or until thick. Spread over cream cheese mixture. Drop remaining whipped topping by spoonfuls over pudding layer; spread evenly. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours.

Step 6
When ready to serve, sprinkle cookies and remaining sprinkles on top. Cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Cover and refrigerate any remaining pieces.

Recipe Tips

For best results, when crushing sandwich cookies, place in resealable food-storage plastic bag; partially seal, and lightly tap rolling pin.
To quickly soften cream cheese, remove from wrapper, and place on microwavable plate; microwave uncovered on High about 15 seconds or just until softened.
Feel free to substitute golden OREO® Cookies for the golden birthday cake flavor creme OREO® Cookies, if you prefer.
