BARBIE BIRTHDAY RECIPES

Steps:

• You must also have a Barbie doll for this recipe, but I could not include it in the ingredients list as it is a non-food item.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees farenheit.
• Grease and flour a an 8 cup rounded glass measuring cup, or you can use a metal mixing bowl.
• Prepare cake mix by adding first 4 ingredients and mixing for 2 minutes.
• Pour cake mix into prepared measuring cup (or metal mixing bowl, and bake 50-60 mins until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
• Let cool for 15 mins, then invert onto cake tray.
• Let cool completely before frosting, about 3 hours.
• After completely cool use frosting to decorate cake to look like Barbie's dress.
• Insert Barbie legs all the way down into middle of the cake, then use remaining frosting to cover her bosoms to complete the dress.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Trim the tops off the 2 tube cakes to level. Trim the flat end of the bowl cake to level. Cut a hole through the center of the bowl cake the width of the Barbie doll. Place one tube cake, trimmed side up, on a cake plate. Place the second tube cake, trimmed side up on top, and the bowl cake, trimmed side down, on top. Spread 1 cup of frosting between each layer.
• Remove all clothing from the doll and wrap the doll's hair in plastic wrap. Insert doll into the hole of the bowl cake up to its waist. Use half of the remaining frosting to completely cover the outside of the cakes, evenly smoothing to form the skirt part of the doll.
• Tint remaining frosting with food coloring to desired colors. Using pastry bags and decorating tips, decorate the skirt and upper half of the doll with colored frosting, as desired. Remove plastic from the doll's hair, and serve.
