Ingredients
  • 1 box strawberry cake mix
  • 1 box white cake mix
  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 sticks (1 & ½ cups) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 pkg (12 oz) white chocolate chips
  • Rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Liberally grease a 13x9" baking pan with cooking spray; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the chocolate cake mix, ONE egg and 1 stick (1/2 cup) softened butter with a spoon until blended and a soft dough has formed. Using greased hands, press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Clean out the bowl with a paper towel.
  3. Next, prepare the white cake mix with ONE egg and another 1 stick (1/2 cup) of butter; stir until combined. Gently press this mixture on top of the chocolate layer with your fingers. Alternatively, you can press the mixture into the palms of your hand and kind of "puzzle piece" it together on top of the chocolate mixture so you're careful not to mix the layers. Clean out the bowl.
  4. Lastly, prepare the strawberry cake mix with the remaining egg and butter. Repeat the same process, covering the white layer with the strawberry layer. Bake for approx. 30-40 minutes or until the top is lightly browned and the center appears set. Allow the bars to cool completely.
  5. Once the bars have cooled, make the ganache: in a microwave-safe bowl, combine the heavy cream and entire package of white chocolate chips. Microwave for 40 seconds, then stir until smooth. Spread evenly over the top of the bars, then immediately top with sprinkles. Allow the bars to set in the fridge for about 30 minutes before cutting into squares to serve.
