Campout Cake
Ingredients
- 2 baked 9-inch round cakes
4 cups green frosting
- Graham crackers
- Gumdrops
- Pretzel sticks
- Necco wafers
- Chocolate cookie crumbs
- Marshmallow trees (see recipe below)
- Colored frosting and gel icing
Directions
Layer the cakes and frost them green. Build a campfire with graham cracker-crumb ashes, gumdrop flames and pretzel stick logs.
For the campers' sleeping bags, frost graham cracker quarters with bright colors and decorate with gel icing. Draw a camper's face with the icing onto a Necco wafer and place on top of each sleeping bag.
Arrange the campers around the "fire" and add a sprinkle of cookie dirt and a few marshmallow trees.
Marshmallow Trees: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 16 large marshmallows with 2 tablespoons butter, stirring constantly.
Remove from the heat and add green food coloring and 2 cups cornflakes, stirring well after each addition.
Spray hands with cooking spray and mold cone-shaped trees. Place trees on a waxed paper-lined tray to cool.
