Ingredients:
– 2 cups whole milk
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 cup cake mix (vanilla or yellow)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
– Pinch of salt
Instructions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk and heavy cream over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the mixture is heated through but not boiling.
2. Gradually whisk in the granulated sugar, cake mix, vanilla extract, and salt. Continue to whisk until all the ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. Then cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or overnight for best results. This step helps the flavors to meld together.
4. Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes, or until the gelato reaches a soft-serve consistency.
5. While the gelato is churning, add in the rainbow sprinkles during the last few minutes of churning to evenly distribute them throughout the gelato.
6. Once the gelato has reached the desired consistency, transfer it to a freezer-safe container, cover with a lid or plastic wrap, and freeze for an additional 2-3 hours until firm.
7. When ready to serve, let the gelato sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before scooping into bowls or cones. Garnish with extra sprinkles on top if desired.
