Halloween: Spider Cake




Source of Recipe


Nicholas Brudnicki


Recipe Introduction




"This is a great Halloween recipe that's lots of fun to make and eat. When cut, it spurts out green goop!"



List of Ingredients




18 1/4 oz box white cake mix
4-serving package green gelatin/jello
blue food coloring
chocolate frosting
4 black licorice strips
2 large green gumballs
6 small gumballs



Recipe



Prepare cake using two 9" round cake pans and cool. Prepare the gelatin/jello according to package directions. It works best if it is a little on the soft side. On a foil-covered cookie-sheet or plate, place one cake layer for the body. Cut a small circle out of the center of the layer. Set the smaller round of cake aside. Fill the hole left in the body with gelatin. Place the other cake layer on top of the body and trim cake to shape. Place the smaller round of cake to use as the spider's head.

Frosting:
In a mixing bowl, add blue food coloring to the chocolate frosting until black in color. Frost the entire cake black. Cut the black licorice strips in half and insert for the eight legs. Position the gumballs as eyes.
