These cakes are so much fun to make, and kids can easily help! I made this poke cake and I loved it, my friends liked it a lot, but another felt it tasted too sweet . Would I make it again? Definitely.
All you need is cake mix, cookies ‘n cream instant pudding and lots of milk.
The box of donuts is really a pill box….Emma’s holding her favorite, a cheerio dipped in chocolate, then sprinkles. The others are cheerios dipped in confectioners’ sugar and cheerios rolled in cinnamon sugar.
How to make the mini cakes:
The mini cakes are really oreos with a layer of frosting between them, then more frosting on tops and sides…plus decorations.
The cakes should “rest” before anyone tries cutting a slice so the oreos have a chance to soften and become, yes, cake-like. Emma used a small pastry tip to make florettes and tubes of colored gels for the lettering.
The Sugared Nerd and Food in Literature have become 2 of my favorite food sites for interesting, one of a kind desserts and recipes. The DIY X Files UFO Cookies are made from chocolate and Sunbutter dough (Sunbutter = sunflower butter - available everywhere and used as an alternative to peanut butter).
NOTE: Sunbutter was used because of Mulder’s love of sunflower seeds.
