Ingredients
- 2 Chocolate cakes Round, Dimensions: 8x2 each
- 5 cups Buttercream icing Colored blue
- ½ cup Black icing Can use store-bought black icing too
- ½ cup White fondant
- 1 Chocolate chip cookies
Instructions
- Bake cakes and allow them to cool completely.
- While cakes are baking and cooling, prepare the frosting.
- Place one cake on a serving dish.
- Use a spatula to spread blue icing on top of the cake.
- Place the other cake on top of this icing. Press gently to secure into place.
- Frost the entire cake smoothly in blue icing.
- Use a toothpick to mark the mouth area.
- Remove some of the icing from this mouth portion with a spoon.
- Use a spatula to spread black icing in this area. It doesn't have to be neat and perfect.
- Fill a piping bag with blue icing and attach the grass tip (Wilton Tip # 233).
- Start piping from the outer edge of the cake and work your way inwards until top is fully covered in "fur." Do not pipe in the black mouth portion.
- Roll out white fondant and cut our two circles with a cookie cutter. Pipe black circles for eyeballs.
- Stick these eyes near the top of the cake.
- Place a partially broken chocolate chip cookie near the mouth and toss crumbs around the mouth.
- Pipe around the base of the cake for neatness. Enjoy.
