i finally gave the viral dot cakes a try… and patriotic edition might be my favorite 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙 they’re surprisingly easy, so satisfying to make, and would be so cute for a 4th of july party, summer bbq, pool day, or holiday dessert table. ✨ here is the exact steps i did! ✨ bake your favorite boxed cake mix according to the package directions and let it cool completely. ✨ take a small mason jar and turn it upside down. Press the opening of the jar into the cake to cut out a circle. When you lift it up, the cake should already be sitting inside the jar. ✨ add a scoop of vanilla frosting. I used an ice cream scoop to make it quick and easy. ✨ spread the frosting into an even layer with an offset spatula or butter knife. ✨ dip the top into red, white & blue sprinkles until completely covered. ✨ repeat with additional layers if you’d like, or keep them as single-layer cakes. that’s it! such a fun and easy 4th of july dessert ❤️🤍💙 p.s. i popped mine in the fridge before serving and thought they were even better cold! 4th of july desserts • patriotic treats • easy summer desserts • red white and blue recipes • holiday baking ideas • viral dot cakes • summer party food • bbq dessert ideas • patriotic party treats • funfetti cake ideas LTKSeasonal LTKHome LTKfoodie
