Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 6 (6) Large Croissants Store Bought
- 15.25 oz (425 g) Box Funfetti Cake Mix (1 Standard Box)
- 2 (2) Large Eggs
- ½ Cup (120 ml) Vegetable Oil or similar unflavored oil
- Sprinkles Optional
- Powdered Sugar Optional
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350℉/175℃. Line a large baking tray.
- Slice the croissants open lengthways, to create a space to fill!
- Mix the funfetti cake mix, oil and eggs until combined - a whisk then a spatula for when it gets stiff work well, but an electric mixer will work too. If you want to add more sprinkles, do it here! I add about 1/4 cup just to really make them pop.
- Scoop 1-2 tablespoons of the cookie dough into each open croissant. Spread in an even layer - it will spill out the sides a little, so don't go all the way to the edges! Close the croissants, spread about 1 tbsp on top of each croissant.
- Bake 15 minutes, until the cookie dough is turning gold at the edges. Remove and let cool on a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar if using, and serve!
