These Crumbl cake batter blondie cookies are the most festive little treats ever! They taste just like a homemade freshly baked cake but in cookie form. Each cookie is packed with white chocolate chips and rolled in sprinkles for an extra fun touch.
If you’re a sprinkles lover like me, I know you will love Crumbl Birthday cake cookies with Sprinkles, Crumbl Funfetti Milkshake Cookies copycat, and Edible Funfetti Cookie Dough for One. They’re so cute and fun to make at home.
This week, crumbl shared a new cookie this week. The Cake batter blondie cookie. It’s a buttery cookie (as always), super soft, thick, and chewy cookies that are packed with white chocolate chips and rolled in halfway in sprinkles.
They are so easy on the eye but also taste absolutely amazing. I mean I would never say no to anything that tastes like cake batter. Such an iconic American flavor if you ask me.

Frequently asked questions – FAQ
How to store Crumbl Cake Batter Blondie Cookies?
These cookies are delicious on the day you make them but they are also just as good for a few days after that.
The best way to store them is to keep them in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. You can also extend that time by a few days if you store them in the fridge. Just make sure to let them get back to room temperature before enjoying them or pop them in the microwave for a few seconds to get them soft and gooey again.
Can I freeze these cookies?
Yes, you can!
You can freeze these cookies in an air-tight container for up to 2 months. Let the cookies come back to room temperature before enjoying them again or pop them in the microwave for a few seconds to get them warm and delicious before enjoying!
WHAT CAKE BATTER FLAVORING SHOULD I USE?
Since this recipe uses cake batter flavoring in the cookie dough, it doesn’t matter which brand you use because the color of the flavoring won’t change the look of the cookie itself. I like to use the McCormick cake batter flavoring because it is easily accessible at my local grocery store.
Can I make small catering sized cake batter cookies?
Absolutely!
Instead of making 9 large cookies, you can make 18 smaller ones, you will coat the side of each cookie with the sprinkles as you would the later ones but instead of baking them for 12 minutes, you can bake them for 8-9 minutes.

Cake Batter Blondie is my favorite cookie, and when i heard it may not come back for a long time, i went searching for a recipe. THIS IS HEAVENLY
The only thing i didn’t use was corn starch and cake batter flavoring but it was still SOOO GOOD! I also substituted vanilla extract for butter vanilla emulsion and it was amazing! Definitely recommend!!!
Matthew
How much LorAnn Super Strength cake batter flavoring would I use in place of McCormick Cake Batter Flavoring. For instance you call for 1/2 a teaspoon of cake batter flavoring per batch of cookies (and said you usually use McCormick), how much LorAnn Super Strength cake batter flavoring would I use per batch?
Thank you in advance.
Chahinez
LorAnn Super Strength flavors are highly concentrated, so you’ll typically use less compared to McCormick Cake Batter Flavoring. For a batch of cookies that calls for 1/2 teaspoon of McCormick Cake Batter Flavoring, you may only need a few drops (about 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon) of LorAnn Super Strength cake batter flavoring. It’s always best to start with a small amount, taste the batter, and add more if needed, as the strength of flavorings can vary.
Sara Shoen
where do I find the cake batter flavoring?
Chahinez
You can buy at a grocery store near you or on amazon!
Brandy
Is there a substitute for “cake batter flavoring”?
Chahinez
Hi Brandy! 😊 If you don’t have cake batter flavoring, you can use an equal amount of vanilla extract instead. The flavor will be slightly less “funfetti-like,” but still delicious. You could also add a drop or two of almond extract along with the vanilla to give it more depth, but go light since almond extract is strong.
Brittani
hello! do you use light or dark brown sugar?
Chahinez
Dark brown sugar 🙂
Brittani
thank you! I’ve made this recipe twice! it’s so good!
Brittani
hello! I am making these cookies today, they sound amazing! can I use LorAnn Super Strength Cake Batter Flavor?
Chahinez
Hi Brittani! Yes, absolutely, LorAnn’s Super Strength Cake Batter Flavor works great here. Just keep in mind it’s more concentrated than regular flavoring, so you may want to start with half the amount (about ¼ teaspoon) and adjust to taste. Can’t wait for you to try them! 💛
Ashley
Is there anything we can use instead of vanilla butter emulsion? I don’t know what else I would put it in(amateur baker here) so I don’t necessarily want to buy it for a one time use.
Chahinez
Hi Ashley! Totally get it, if you don’t want to buy vanilla butter emulsion, you can swap it for the same amount of regular vanilla extract. The flavor will be slightly different (a little less rich and buttery), but still amazing. If you happen to have butter extract on hand, you can mix half vanilla extract + half butter extract for a closer match.
Alice
