Birthday Cake Crumbs


Momofuku is one of my favorite dessert places in the city. Sometimes a little too salty for my taste but it is always insanely amazing. Once I tried there version of a birthday cake which made me want to cry in happiness.

So I'm going to try to make it. It is a bit complicated because it starts out with the Momofuku "crumbs" which is mixed into all of their baked goods. But it good enough to eat by itself as a snack. This is the recipe adapted from Christina Tosi's original.

Birthday Cake Crumbs:

What you need:
3/4 cup nonfat dry milk powder
1/2 cup flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons corn starch
1/2 cup sprinkles
pinch of salt
6 tablespoons butter, melted

What you do:
Preheat the oven to 275 F. In a large bowl, mix together the milk powder, flour, sugar, corn starch, sprinkles and salt with a whisk or even a fork. Once they are combined mix in the melted butter with a fork and only a fork. The mixture will look like wet sand then become crumbs. Magic. Sprinkle across a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 10 minutes.
