Instructions
Please note that some of the instructions below are from the Funfetti Cake Mix and Betty Crocker Fluffy Icing box instructions.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray large, thin pan with non-stick cooking spray.

Funfetti Birthday Cake step 1 In a large bowl, blend cake mixture, water, oil and eggs. I highly recommend using a Cuisinart or KitchenAid mixer for maximum results. Mix until moistened. Beat with mixer for 2 minutes on medium speed.Pour a thin layer (about 1 inch) of cake mix into your large, thin pan (you may need 2 pans for all of the mixture). Bake at 350 degrees F for approximately 10-12 minutes or until you can insert a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean.Set aside and let cool for 10-15 minutes.

Take any size circular glass trifle dish (I recommend anywhere from 2” across to 4” across) and place upside down onto cake pan. Press down firmly and twist – cutting out a perfect size circle for your dish. Do this 2 to 3 times, depending on the height of your dish and your preference. Once you have your desired cake layers, start building!Funfetti Birthday Cake step 2

Boil ½ cup water. Beat frosting mixture in a small bowl (metal or glass) and slowly add water while mixing on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on high speed for 5 to 7 minutes.Funfetti Birthday Cake step 3

First, add a cake layer to the base of the dish. Next, add a layer of fluffy frosting. Add a thin layer of cotton candy. Finally, add M&Ms. Repeat this process until you have reached your desired height.Funfetti Birthday Cake step 4

Top your dessert with a final layer of fluffy frosting, twisting your spatula in the center to create a swirl. Add sprinkles!Funfetti Birthday Cake step 5
