List of Ingredients




1. Prepare 1 box of Yellow Duncan Hines Moist Cake Mix according to the instructions on the box.
2. To make the layers, pour 8 large tablespoons (the kind you would normally use in the kitchen) into 9 inch grease pans.
3. Bake the pans at 350 degrees for 8 minutes.

Banana Icing Ingredients:
1. 2 medium bananas
2. 1 1/2 box 10X confectioners sugar
3. 1/2 stick of butter
4. Bottle of milk

To Make Icing:
1. Soften butter and mash bananas into butter with a fork
2. Take a mixer and add 10X sugar a little at a time using enough milk to thin it so that it's spreadable.
3. Spread the icing in between the layers (as many as you want), and then spread icing on the outside of the cake.

Chocolate Icing for the Smith Island Cake
1. Take a stick of butter and melt it in a pot on the stove.
2. Add 5 tablespoons of cocoa.
3. Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla
4. Add a pinch of salt
5. Add 1 cup of milk
6. Add 1 box of 10X confectioners sugar
7. Cook for about 6 mins or until the icing pulls away from the pan.

Frosting
2 sticks butter
2-12 oz. cans evaporated milk
8 heaping Tablespoons unsweetened Cocoa
2 lbs. confectioners Sugar

Melt butter. Stir in evaporated milk (off heat).
Whisk in Cocoa until smooth, return to heat and cook for approximately 10 minutes. DO NOT BOIL or Scorch.
Remove from heat and whisk in confectioners sugar slowly.
Cook slowly until thickened and will stick to back of a spoon or to the whisk (It will form a ribbon when you drizzle a spoonful onto mixture while cooking).

Mix on low speed for approx. 5 min. add the rest of the milk and blend on med high for 10 minutes or until a smooth cake consistency. ( 10 min....will form ribbon)

Spray 9" cake pans.
Spread 1 cup cake batter into pans evenly.
Bake 10 minutes *(will slightly brown and begin to release from the sides of pan)

Repeat this until you have 10 layers.
To ice the cake
Take one slightly cooled layer and spread with cooled frosting. Add crushed candy randomly on layer. (Reese cups, snickers, milky ways, or whatever your favorite is—candy is optional as well )
Add next layers, frosting, candy, and repeat process till the 10th layer.
Do not add candy to final layer.
Finish frosting the cake and sides. May have to wait to ice top and sides until the icing cools.
