Dreidel Cake

Surprise Dreidel Cake

This awesome cake creation is so much easier than you would ever imagine. A box of cake mix, food coloring, and a dreidel cookie cutter is all you need to make it happen.

Ingredients

  • 1 15-ounce classic yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup water
  • ⅓  cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon blue food coloring

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. 
  • Combine cake mix, water, oil and eggs in a large bowl. Mix with a handheld mixer or with a whisk until smooth. 
  • Remove two cups of batter and pour into a separate bowl. Mix the blue food coloring into this bowl. 
  • Set remaining batter aside. 
  • Pour the blue batter into a half sheet tray (or a 9×13 baking pan) and bake for 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. 
  • Cool completely.
  • Using a dreidel cookie cutter (about 2 inches tall), punch out dreidel shapes from the cooled blue cake. 
  • Grease an 8-inch loaf pan and pour in 1 cup of the reserved batter. 
  • Line the blue dreidel cake pieces standing up, in an even row, and press into batter. 
  • Pour remaining batter into loaf pan. 
  • Bake the cake for 35 minutes. 
  • Cool and serve as is, with frosting or a dusting of powdered sugar.
