Ingredients:
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 (3.4 oz) box instant cheesecake or white chocolate pudding mix (unprepared)
- 1 1/2 cups cold milk
- 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed

Directions:
Step 1: Whip the base
1. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy.
2. Add the dry pudding mix and cold milk, and beat until thickened (about 2–3 minutes).
3. Stir in vanilla extract or cake batter flavoring if using.
Step 2: Fold in fluff
1. Gently fold in the whipped topping until light and creamy.
2. Carefully fold in the cubed birthday cake pieces and rainbow sprinkles — don’t overmix or the colors may bleed.
Step 3: Chill & serve
1. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld and fluff to set.
2. Just before serving, top with extra sprinkles and a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
3. Serve in bowls, jars, or cupcake liners for a fun party presentation!

Tips:
- Use leftover cake or cupcakes (with or without frosting) for the mix-ins.
- For extra flair, add mini white chocolate chips or crushed vanilla cookies.
- Serve in clear cups to show off the colorful sprinkles and cake chunks.
- Best enjoyed within 2 days — the cake will soften more over time.
- Want it lighter? Use sugar-free pudding mix and light whipped topping.
