I take this dessert to work for Friday pick-me-ups. It's one of my favorite yellow cake bar recipes. I love to share them because they're so easy to eat, easy to make and easy on the wallet. —Amy Rose, Ballwin, Missouri

Test Kitchen Tips
  • We used rainbow sprinkles in our recipe, but feel free to swap them for a color that fits the occasion.
  • Can't resist a taste before the party begins? Cut the bars and arrange them on a plate. Your guests will never guess there's a piece missing.
  • Hungry for more? Try these recipes that start with a box of cake mix.
