# Components:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 2 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
03 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
04 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
05 - 1/3 cup rainbow sprinkles
→ Wet Ingredients
06 - 2 large eggs
07 - 1 cup whole milk
08 - 1/2 cup sour cream
09 - 1/3 cup granulated sugar
10 - 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
11 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Topping
12 - 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
13 - 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
14 - Extra rainbow sprinkles, for garnish
# Preparation steps:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring an overhang for easy removal.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Fold in 1/3 cup rainbow sprinkles.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk, sour cream, sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until thoroughly blended and smooth.
04 - Incorporate the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain tenderness.
05 - Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread evenly to the edges.
06 - Sprinkle shredded mild cheddar cheese and mini chocolate chips uniformly over the surface. Add extra rainbow sprinkles for a festive finish.
07 - Bake in the preheated oven for 22 to 25 minutes, until edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
08 - Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Lift the cake from the pan using parchment overhang, cut into bars, and serve warm or at room temperature.
