Birthday Cake Batter Frosting

I have a confession…I am totally obsessed with funfetti cake!!! I may or may not have taken my obsession up to a whole new level recently…you be the judge! ;) That whole saying, “a party is a meeting without cake” is one of my favorite quotes. As we have had so many birthday parties coming up (including Claire’s first birthday) I’ve been playing around with unique frosting combinations. I’ve become a little obsessed with taking crumbles of my favorite cookies and cakes and adding it into frosting. For this particular frosting recipe, I literally took birthday funfetti baked cake crumbles and folded them into the frosting. True story! Not only was this frosting super easy to create but it gives any birthday party a festive extra touch. This is definitely one of my new favorite frosting recipes!
