Slumber Party Cake Recipe
Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 1 pkt white cake mix - (18 1/4 ounce) prepared as directed
- 1/8 tsp plus 4 drops green food color
- 2 ct cream cheese frosting - (16 ounce
- 5 x Twinkies more or possibly less
- 5 lrg marshmallows flattened 1 1/2" by
- 5 x vanilla or possibly chocolate flavored wafers
- Â Â Assorted decorative icing or possibly gel and
- Â Â decorative sprinkles
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9- by 13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place 1 c. of the cake batter in a small bowl and stir in 1/8 tsp. green food color; mix well. Pour the remaining batter into the baking pan. Drop the colored batter by spoonfuls into the batter in the baking pan and swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect. Bake according to package directions. Cold completely then invert onto a serving platter.
- In a medium bowl, combine one container of frosting with the remaining 4 drops green food color; mix well. Lightly frost the entire cake with green frosting then heavily frost the top one-third of the cake lengthwise with the remaining green frosting.
- Cut the Twinkies in half lengthwise and place the top halves on the lightly frosted cake section, slightly overlapping the heavily frosted section. Frost the Twinkies and the bottom two-thirds and sides of the cake with the remaining container of cream cheese frosting to look like a blanket which covers the Twinkies (the "bodies").
- Place a flattened marshmallow to look like a pillow above each Twinkie on the green frosted part of the cake. Decorate the wafers with decorative icing to make hair, eyes, and mouths. Attach the decorated wafers to the marshmallow pillows with leftover frosting.
- Using the decorative icing, make a ruffle around the edges of the blanket. Sprinkle the blanket with decorative sprinkles; serve. (If making ahead of time, place toothpicks in the corners and lightly cover with plastic wrap till ready to serve.)
- This recipe yields 12 servings.
- Comments: Use more or possibly fewer Twinkies on your cake, depending on how many "slumbering guests" will be attending your slumber party!
