Spiderweb Cake




Source of Recipe


BEATLENEST RECIPE


List of Ingredients




1 box (18.5 ounce size) chocolate cake mix, batter prepared according to package directions
1 cup mini marshmallows
1 container (16 ounce size) white frosting
4 drops red food color
4 drops yellow food color
2 black jelly beans
1 tube black decorating gel
OR
1 string black licorice


Recipe



Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat two 8-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray.

Pour the cake batter into the pans and bake for 28 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

While still warm, invert one cake onto a serving platter. Top with the mini marshmallows and place the second cake layer right side up over the marshmallows. Let sit for 5 minutes for the marshmallows to melt, then chill until firm.

In a small bowl, mix together 1-1/4 cups white frosting with the red and yellow food colors until the frosting is orange. Frost the top and sides of the cake.

Place the remaining white frosting into a resealable plastic storage bag. Cut a very small tip off the corner of the bag and pipe a spiderweb design over the top of the cake.

Place a black jelly bean on the spiderweb on the cake and draw legs with the black gel or form them with licorice to look like a spider. Repeat with the remaining jelly bean and gel to form a second spider.
