Source of Recipe

Judy Musick


List of Ingredients

1 package devil's food cake mix
1/2 teaspoon red food color
1/2 teaspoon yellow food color
1 containers white frosting
One 3 inch round sugar cookie
1 chocolate candy bar or hostess ho ho cake roll




Recipe

Prepare and bake the cake batter in a Bundt pan, according to the package directions. Let cool slightly, then remove from the pan and let cool completely on a wire rack.

While the cake is cooling, in a medium sized bowl, combine the red and yellow food color with the white frosting, mixing until the frosting turns bright orange.

Place cake onto a plate or serving tray right side up and
place the cookie in the center of the cake to cover the hole and frost the cookie and the cake lightly with the orange frosting. (The ridges in the cake should still be visible.)

Place the candy bar or ho ho cake roll on top of the cake, like a stem. You may icing the stem with green icing and also you could use the green icing to cover the cookie in the center.

Use assorted goodies like gum drops, candy corn, cookies, raisins, miniature marshmallows or chocolate chips to decorate your pumpkin to look like your favorite jack-o'-lantern
