Ingredients
- 1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 box Pillsbury Funfetti cake mix
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- 3 large eggs
- 2 1/3 cups milk

Frosting:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter softened
- 2 tablespoons half & half cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
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.
