    Spiderweb Cake

    18 1/2 oz Box chocolate cake mix
    1 c Mini marshmallows
    16 oz White frosting
    4 dr Red food color
    4 dr Yellow food color
    2 Black jelly beans
    1 Tube black decorating gel -OR-
    1 Black licorice string

    Prepare cake batter per pkg directions.

    Preheat the oven to 350?F. Coat two 8" cake pans with nonstick
    cooking spray. Pour the cake batter into the pans and bake for 28 to
    30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out
    clean.

    While still warm, invert one cake onto a serving platter. Top with
    the mini marshmallows and place the second cake layer right side up
    over the marshmallows. Let sit for 5 minutes for the marshmallows to
    melt, then chill until firm.

    In a small bowl, mix together 1-1/4 cups white frosting with the red
    and yellow food colors until the frosting is orange. Frost the top
    and sides of the cake.

    Place the remaining white frosting into a resealable plastic storage
    bag. Cut a very small tip off the corner of the bag and pipe a
    spiderweb design over the top of the cake.

    Place a black jelly bean on the spiderweb on the cake and draw legs
    with the black gel or form them with licorice to look like a spider.
    Repeat with the remaining jelly bean and gel to form a second spider.

    Yield: 12 Servings
