Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and cake mix. Set aside.
In another small bowl, mix together the oil, eggs and milk.
Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Fold in the sprinkles. Batter will be thick. (If you'd like thinner pancakes, you can add a bit more milk.)
Heat a griddle to about 250-275 degrees (low heat so the pancakes do not burn). Spray the griddle with cooking spray.
Ladle the pancake batter onto the hot pan and cook the pancakes for about 1-2 minutes or until bubbles start forming in the batter. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional minute or until cooked through.
This recipes makes about 22 5" pancakes.
For the Frosting
In a small bowl, stir together the powdered sugar, softened butter, cream and vanilla. This frosting will be at a spreadable consistency.
If you'd like to drizzle the frosting, microwave the frosting for about 10 seconds and stir, then drizzle over the pancakes.
Double the frosting recipe, if desired.

Notes
These pancakes freeze well. Place wax paper between each pancake and put them in a Ziploc bag. The wax paper will help them to separate easily.
