I made this cake for my daughter's 4th birthday. Here's the link so you can see the original, because I didn't decorate it according to the recipe. But it was still cute.
Ingredients:
18 ounces yellow cake mix
3 eggs
1/2 cup oil
1 1/3 cups water
1/3 cup raspberry jam
12 oreo cookies
1 (8 ounce) container cool whip topping, thawed
assorted food coloring
1 cup post fruity pebbles cereal
assorted ring-shaped hard candies
mini oreo bite size chocolate sandwich style cookies
Directions:
1. Prepare and bake cake batter as directed on package for two 9-inch round layers. Cool completely on wire racks.
2. Cut layers crosswise in half. Spread two of the cake halves with jam; top with remaining two cake halves to form two stacks.
3. To assemble, arrange cookies in center of large board or tray with edges slightly overlapping to form the butterfly's body, securing cookies to each other with small amount of the whipped topping.
4. Arrange cake stacks around body to resemble the butterfly's wings. .
5. Tint remaining whipped topping with food coloring as desired. Spread onto cake stacks. Decorate butterfly with tinted whipped topping, cereal, candies and mini cookies.
