Hamburger Cake

You should make this cake.  Everyone will LOVE it. 

 

Use 3 pound cake mix boxes.  Get some vanilla (1) and chocolate frosting (2). 

Crush up some dark chocolate cookies.  2 big marshmallows and 2 m&m’s for the eyes.  Pine nuts on top for the seeds. 

The tomatoes are vanilla wafers.  A bit of vanilla frosting mixed with yellow and orange food coloring ’till you get the red you want.  Zap it for a few seconds in the micro and dip the cookies.  Let them dry. 

The lettuce is those green belt gummy candy thingies.

For the bun color, you are mixing chocolate frosting with (lots of) yellow food coloring ’till you get the bun color you like. 

For the burger layer, frost the cake with the chocolate.  Push the crushed chocolate cookies into that layer. 

The cheese or mustard look, mix up some food coloring yellow/orange to the color you like.  Heat in the micro and drizzle so it looks globby and melted. 

Oh yeah, round bun on top.  Cooked it in an oven safe bowl and shaved the top to the shape I wanted. 

I really like this for end of season sports parties.  I like to top this guy off with the little plastic team hats.  You know, Der Weinerschnitzel serves ice cream in them.  You can usually find one of those on Ebay.

Have fun with it and change it up…give him your own touch of personality.

Valentine’s Breakfast in 2 minutes!!!

 

This one ranks up there with Rice Krispie treats girls. Delicious and Oh So Easy.

Let’s do it.

Buy:

Pour applesauce into a bowl.  Cup or so.

Decide how many red hots to mix in. 1/4 cup seems right for my taste (I mean the kids.)  Play with it and see what you like.

Toss the red hots into the applesauce…

Microwave for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.  The idea here is to melt the candies. 

Stir.  Stir.  Stir.

Stir until the candies have melted.  Your depth of color of applesauce will be determined by how many red hots you mix in. 

Add toast.  Leave the wheat in the drawer today.  White bread goes best…opinion.

Enjoy!!!  No, it’s not hot (spice).  It’s warm and sweet just like a hug from MaMa.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
