Funfetti Cake Batter Bars

Funfetti Cake Batter Bars

 

I first discovered blogging after watching TLC. I wasn’t watching Extreme Couponers, Say Yes to the Dress, or even Sister Wives. I was watching some kooky late night program about people who made a living entering giveaways.

“YESSSS that will be me”, said my sleep deprived brain.

I started entering online giveaways later that night (many of which were hosted by blogs). As time went on I discovered blogs had actual content on them (shocking I know). It took me awhile to find ones I could connect with.

1. Crafts: (Nuuuuuu too hard)

2. Kids (No thanks!)

3. Food blogs: YES please!! nomnomnom

Funfetti Cake Batter Bars

Funfetti Cake Batter Bars

The first food blog post I ever read was Cake Batter Truffles. I’ve always been addicted to Cake Batter Ice Cream, but didn’t know there were 134242 desserts with that flavor profile. I left a rambling comment and the blogger replied saying to let me know if I ended up trying them. -food blog fan girl scream-.

Today I’m sharing another of my favorite Cake Batter Recipes: Funfetti Cake Batter Bars

    Hi Krystle, long time no see! How have you been? I am not much of a baker, but I have a boyfriend who – oddly, seeing how he can’t even cook an egg – loves it, so I might persuade him to try this recipe!
