Cake Mix Pancakes taste just like cake only in the form of pancakes. Covered with a sweet, creamy glaze they are the perfect way to start a birthday celebration.
Mix flour, cake mix, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
In a medium bowl, beat 2 eggs and add in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and milk.
Add wet ingredients into dry and mix until flour is no longer visible. If batter is too thick for your liking, add a little more milk.
Heat griddle over medium heat. Coat with cooking spray. Add sprinkles to batter and drop 1/4 cup at a time onto griddle. Cook until bubbles form and flip over. Continue to cook until bottom is lightly browned. Note: Don't add sprinkles to batter until just before cooking. The color will start to bleed into the batter.
For vanilla glaze, combine powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, and 2 tablespoons melted butter in a medium bowl. Mix until smooth. Add heavy cream until you reach desired consistency. Add a few sprinkles.
Top pancakes with glaze and whipped cream (optional).
