Ingredients

Main Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour sifted
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter softened
1/2 cup whole milk
4 large eggs room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles

Cereal Coating

2 cups crispy rice cereal crushed
1/2 cup white chocolate chips melted

Instructions

1 Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2 In a large bowl, combine sifted flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
3 Add softened butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
4 Fold in the rainbow sprinkles gently until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
5 Pour the batter into a greased cake pan and smooth the surface. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6 Allow the cake to cool completely before crumbling it into a large bowl.
7 Using your hands, form the crumbled cake into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
8 Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth.
9 Dip each cake ball into the melted white chocolate, then immediately roll it in the crushed crispy rice cereal to coat.
10 Place the coated truffles on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate until set, about 15 minutes.
