These copycat Crumbl birthday cake cookies are a delicious remake of the cookies you can buy in the famous bakery.
Are you a fan of Crumbl cookies?
These copycat Crubl cookies are in birthday cake flavor. They are a delicious cookie.
Why would you want to make this copycat Crumbl cookie?
If you love birthday cake or funfetti, you'll love these cookies! You can have them whenever you want to make them and you can save money by making them instead of buying them.
If you live far from a Crumbl bakery store, you can save time and money by making your own. If you have seen gas prices lately, driving just to get cookies will add up quickly.
Or maybe you don't have any Crumbl stores within driving distance and don't want to order them. You can still try the Crumbl cookies by making them at home.
Hard to Find Ingredients
Cake batter flavor is the hardest to find ingredient. If your local grocery store doesn't carry this, I've seen it at both Amazon and the online Walmart.
Leftovers
You can store leftovers in an air tight container or fridge for 4-5 days. You'll want to eat the cookies sooner rather than later for best quality.

Step 4: Add in the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder and salt) and mix until just combined.
Step 5: Use a large cookie scoop and scoop out 8 equally sized cookie dough balls. Roll the dough into balls and then roll the balls in the sprinkles. Flatten the cookies to ¾ inch thickness.
Step 6: Bake for 12-13 min until lightly golden on the edges.
Step 7: Remove cookies from the oven and let sit on the baking sheets for at least ten min before removing to a cooling rack to fully cool down.
How to Make Cake Flavored Buttercream Frosting
Step 1: Using a hand or stand mixer, cream the butter until smooth.

Decorating
Step 1: Add the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a Tip 10 or 12
Step 2: Starting in the center of the cookie, pipe a dot and then make a tight circle around it. Continue this until the cookie is fully frosted. Immediately top with sprinkles.
