Ingredients

15.25 ounces box white cake mix
2 large eggs
⅓ cup salted butter melted
¾ cup colorful sprinkles or non-pareils
20 Birthday Cake Kisses

Instructions

Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Using a hand or stand mixer, beat together the white cake mix, eggs and melted butter until a smooth dough forms.
Allow the dough to sit for about 5 minutes and then scoop out the cookies with a 1 ½ Tablespoon cookie scoop and roll into balls.
Pour the rainbow sprinkles or non-pareils into a shallow bowl and roll each cookie ball in the sprinkles until well coated before placing on the prepared baking sheet(s).
Be sure to keep about 2 inches of space between the cookies.
Bake for 7-11 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown and get firm.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 2-3 minutes.
Press an unwrapped Birthday Cake Kiss into the center of each cookie and remove from the baking sheet.
Cool completely on a cooling rack or serve warm.
