This is NOT my picture, it is on Pinterest. I did, however, make this cake for Little Guy's 7th birthday this weekend. It is one of the easiest cakes I've made! He wanted chocolate and white cake, so I made one round cake of each (I recommend 8 inch pan if you have it), and used the extra batter in a 9X13 for another day. Frost and stack the two cake rounds, break Kit Kat bars into groups of two (I used 5 King Sized Kit Kat bars, and still needed one more bar), stick the bars to the cake while the icing is still fresh, pour a medium bag of M & M's on the top, and there you have it! I didn't even add the bow, it held together just fine for me. Sugar overload, for sure! But super easy, and made the boy happy. Yes, with the candy and cake, it cost me $8 - 10 for the cake, which, at first, I thought was a bit much, but when you pay at least $15 for a small cake at the store, I figure I still came out ahead!

No, that is WAY too cute. And even though I like to be thrifty and all, even if it HAD cost slightly more than a store-bought one, I think the memory of "Mommy made that for me" is really special. Not like it's bad parenting to NOT make it; it's just extra sweet, and sometimes worth a little extra if need be. I tried to send you an email based on your comment on my blog. I am so unbelievably techno- challenged, it's really... unbelievable. So I don't know if it got through or not. So I'm going to make another comment after this one with my email. Then you can just delete it after you get the address. I'm amazed I can even comment on people's blogs! I only have my own blog because my brother set it up for me. :-/
