This moist white cake is a snap to prepare because it starts with a mix. Have fun decorating it-we sure did. Ingredients:
1 package white cake mix (regular size) |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
4-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
5 tablespoons 2% milk |
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
3 red fruit roll-ups, unrolled |
shredded coconut and black food coloring |
assorted candies of your choice ( fruit by the foot fruit roll, m&m's, black licorice twists, caramels, plain chocolate bar, dark purple gummi life saver, red-hot candy and gold candy coins) |
Directions:
1. Prepare and bake cake according to package directions, using two greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to cool completely.
2. Cut two pieces from the lower edges of each cake, forming a pirate's head (save small pieces for another use).
3. For frosting, in a large bowl, beat butter until fluffy. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla; beat until smooth.
4. Place one cake layer on a serving platter; top with 1/2 cup frosting; top with second cake layer. Frost top and sides with remaining frosting.
5. For pirate's bandanna, place Fruit Roll-Ups over top edge of cake. Tint coconut with black food coloring; sprinkle over chin for goatee. Decorate pirate's features with assorted candies. Yield: 10-12 servings.
