No, that is not a little box. I sent my son into the store and he says they didn't have one and so this is what he came back with.......Yes, that is a kitty litter scoop (the serving spoon) AND YES it is clean (IT IS BRAND NEW). :)
Here is the recipe, if you are interested. Unfortunately, I cannot remember where I got it from. I did get this recipe a few years ago. Anyway, this cake is really fun to make.
Ingredients:
1 German Chocolate Cake Mix or Spice Cake Mix
1 White Cake Mix
1 package White Sandwich Cookies
1 Large package Vanilla Instant Pudding Mix
Green food coloring
12 Small Tootsie Rolls
Props:
1 Kitty litter box (NEW)
1 Kitty litter box plastic liner (NEW)
1 Pooper scooper (NEW)
Preparation:
Prepare cake mixes and bake according to directions (any size pans). Prepare pudding mix and chill until ready to assemble.
Crumble white sandwich cookies in small batches in blender, they tend to stick, so scrape often. Set aside all but about 1/4 cup.
To the 1/4 cup cookie crumbs, add a few drops green food coloring and mix using a fork or shake in a jar.
When cakes are cooled to room temperature, crumble into a large bowl. Toss with half the remaining white cookie crumbs and the chilled pudding. You probably won't need all of the pudding, mix with the cake and "feel" it, you don't want it soggy, just moist; gently combine.
Line new, clean kitty litter box. Put mixture into litter box.
Put three unwrapped Tootsie rolls in a microwave safe dish and heat until soft and pliable. Shape ends so they are no longer blunt, curving slightly. Repeat with 3 more Tootsie rolls and bury in mixture (I tend to use more Tootsie rolls than the recipe calls for). Sprinkle the other half of cookie crumbs over top. Scatter the green cookie crumbs lightly over the top, this is supposed to look like the chlorophyll in kitty litter.
Heat the remaining Tootsie Rolls, 3 at a time, in the microwave until almost melted. Scrape them on top of the cake and sprinkle with cookie crumbs. Now spread 5 of the remaining Tootsie Rolls over the top; take one and heat until pliable, hang it over the side of the kitty litter box; sprinkling it lightly with cookie crumbs. Try not to heat them too much or they will melt all over.
Place the box on a newspaper and sprinkle a few of the cookie crumbs around. Serve kitty litter cake with a NEW pooper scooper.
Thanks!
