Easter is going to be super tough this year, what with the Corona Virus STAY HOME order in effect...while my parents live only ½ a mile away, and I can easily go see them, we can't gather in crowds larger than 10, and our family is over 10 without even counting all of the grand kids or spouses, let alone cousins or grandparents.
So we will likely all spend Easter alone in our own homes, except maybe for me and one of my sisters who doesn't have any children - we MAY go to my parents. Everything is so uncertain right now, the main priority is for everyone to avoid one another and maintaining our self quarantine and remaining healthy. It's a really weird year, 2020...

This is such an easy no bake dessert recipe, so there isn't a lot of preparation that needs to be done! YAY! Microwave the cake mix until it reaches 165 degrees to kill any bacteria, about 1 minute.
You are going to begin by adding the softened cream cheese to a mixer and beat it until it is smooth and creamy.
Next, you are going to add the whipped topping and beat them together well.
Pour in your Funfetti cake mix and the milk and beat it all together well.
If the mixture is too thick, you can add a bit of additional milk, 2 tablespoons at a time.
I did not need additional milk.
Spoon the finished Easter dip into a pretty serving dish and top it with lots of sprinkles.
Hint: Serve with animal cookies or graham crackers like Teddy Grahams.

This dessert dip is irresistible!!! I'm going to make it again for my book club next month!
Deb says
Hi! Can this dip be made with homemade whipped cream substitute for “whipped topping” from a tub??
Jennifer says
So, you CAN use whipped cream, but the dip will not be thick like our recipe shows. Cool whip has a different texture so the whipped cream will end up a lot more thin and creamy. If you try this, please let me know how it turns out!
