Easter Egg Cake

This past week I noticed my local grocery store had Easter Egg shaped cakes "on sale" for $19.99.  I am going to show you how to make an easy & beautiful cake for less than $3.00.

 You will need 1 box of cake mix & 1 can of frosting.  Of course you can make your own of both the cake & frosting, I just did not have the ingredients on hand to make my own frosting.  And when you are in a crowded, hectic grocery store on a holiday weekend with two children, it is impossible to remember what you need to make "homemade" frosting. 

 I used my Pampered Chef Classic Batter Bowl as my mold.  Mix your cake mix & it's ingredients -- I like to substitute water with milk -- in a separate bowl.  Then transfer to your greased Batter Bowl.  Cook in a 350 degree oven for about an hour, or until a cake tester comes out clean through the entire center.  Invert on your Cooling Rack and let your cake cool.

Using a Serrated or Bread Knife, trim off the top to make it flat & then slice down the middle.  Slice & trim so your cake it is flat & "egg shaped".

 Using your Spreader, spread frosting in between the cake halves to act as glue.  Frosting your cake with your Spreader.  Add some food coloring of your choice & then decorate with your Easy Accent Decorator.

Decorate to your liking!  I used pastel sprinkles, jelly beans & chocolate bunnies as per my kid's requests.  Now you have a great Easter dessert and table centerpiece!

Enjoy!!!
