Directions

MOTHER BUG CAKE

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 1-½ quart ovenproof bowl. Prepare pound cake mix according to package directions and pour batter into prepared bowl. Bake in center of oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50-60 minutes. Cool on wire rack for 10 minutes.

Invert cake onto wire rack and cool completely.

To make the eyes, attach the peanut butter cups to the cookies with a dab of vanilla frosting. Top that with some more frosting and the peppermint patties. For the pupils, attach the orange Reese's Pieces with the vanilla frosting. Cut six 1-inch pieces of the Twizzler Pull-N-Peel grape candies and attach with the frosting as the eyelashes. Allow eyes to set for 15 minutes to secure candy.

Transfer cake, rounded side up to serving platter. Frost entire cake with the chocolate frosting. Press the Nuggets around the base of the cake.

Press the eyes about 1-½ inches up from the Nuggets. Attach the miniature Reese's peanut butter cup as the nose and use the one 4 inch strawberry Twizzler Pull-N-Peel as the mouth. Press the Rolos into the top of the cake into a diamond shape and fill in the remaining space with Kisses.

Using a small amount of frosting, attach the yellow Reese's Pieces on top of the Rolos. To make the legs, press the Twizzler Pull-N-Peel grape candies into the base and then press the cut end of the Mounds at the ends of the Pull-N-Peel legs.
