Ingredients

  • 1 (15.25-ounce) box white cake mix
  • 1 (8-ounce) container whipped topping thawed
  • ¾ cup vanilla pudding or yogurt
  • green food coloring
  • red heart sprinkles

Method

  1. Spread the white cake mix evenly over a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake it at 350°F for 5 minutes, stirring halfway, to heat-treat it, then let the mix cool completely.
  2. Tip the cooled cake mix into a large bowl with the thawed whipped topping and the vanilla pudding or yogurt, add a few drops of green food coloring and whip everything with a hand mixer until the dip is fluffy and no lumps of mix remain.
  3. Add more food coloring a drop at a time until the dip reaches a bright grinchy green.
  4. Spoon the dip into a serving bowl, scatter the red heart sprinkles over the top and set it out with cookies for dipping.
