Kitty Litter Cake

With Halloween approaching, why not think of this delightfully horrific cake? It's sure to make quite the impression on your guests!

Cake Ingredients:
1 box of Spice or German Chocolate cake mix
1 box of white cake mix
1 package white sandwich cookies
1 large package vanilla instant pudding mix
12 small Tootsie Rolls or equivalent
A few drops green food coloring

Serving "Dishes and Utensils"
1 NEW cat-litter box
1 NEW cat-litter box liner
1 NEW pooper scooper

Directions:
1. Prepare and bake cake mixes according to directions in any size pan. Prepare pudding and chill. Crumble cookies in small batches in blender on food processor. Add a few drops of green food coloring to 1 cup of cookie crumbs. Mix with a fork or shake in a jar. Set aside.

2. When cakes are at room temperature, crumble them into a large bowl. Toss with half of the remaining cookie crumbs and enough pudding to make the mixture moist but not soggy. Place the liner in the litter box and pour in the mixture.

3. Unwrap 3 Tootsie Rolls and heat in a microwave until soft and pliable. Shape the blunt ends into slightly curved points. Repeat with three more rolls. Bury the rolls decoratively in the cake mixture. Sprinkle remaining white cookie crumbs over the mixture, then scatter the green crumbls lightly over top.

4. Heat 5 more Tootsie Rolls until almost melted. Scrape them on top of the cake and sprinkle with crumbs from the litter box. Heat the remaining Tootsie Rolls until pliable and hang it over the edge of the box. Place box on a sheet of newspaper and serve with the scooper. Enjoy!

  • You've performed a valuable service to all dieters or those craving sweets, especially our Mom. She just said "Ugh, I'll never eat cake again without thinking of this!"

    Thank you, Zeus.

  • I have seen this before, and I agree... no matter how good it might smell, thoughts of the real thing in my garage would stop me in my tracks.

    I especially like the one hanging over the side of the box. Very realistic, LOL!

  • I would use more "organic" ingredients if I were to make it.

    I'm just sayin'...
