Ingredients:

  • 1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant banana pudding mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/3 cup canola oil
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 6 cups confectioners' sugar
  • pinch salt
  • 5 to 6 tbsp milk
  • ruler and string or dental floss
  • 2 pastry bags or heavy-duty resealable plastic bags
  • round pastry tip #5, optional

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, pudding mix, water, eggs and oil; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes.
  2. Pour into two greased 9-in. square baking pans. Bake at 350° for 27-32 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 15 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
  3. For frosting, in a large bowl, cream the shortening until fluffy. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, salt and enough milk to achieve desired spreading consistency; set aside 2/3 cup. Using remaining frosting, spread between layers and over top and sides of cake.
  4. To make quilt design, divide the top into nine equal squares, using a ruler and making a gentle imprint in frosting with string or dental floss. Referring to Fig. 1, use a toothpick to gently draw each block design. Fill in design with preserves as shown in photo.
  5. Cut a small hole in the bottom corner of a pastry or plastic bag; insert round tip if desired (or pipe directly from bag). Fill the bag with 1/3 cup reserved frosting and pipe an outline around each square. Prepare another plastic or pastry bag, inserting the star tip. Fill bag with remaining frosting; pipe around outer edge of top and bottom of cake. Holding the bag straight up and down, form stars on the corners of cake and squares. Yield: 9 servings.
