Graveyard Cake Recipe | Southern Living image

As far as decorative Halloween cakes go, this one is the easiest by far. Eerie and darkened with black cookie crumbs that look like soil, our Graveyard Cake might just be a must Halloween decoration for your table.In addition to being festive, our recipe requires no homemade components. Instead, we use a box of Devil's Food cake mix to make the batter for the cake layers, we use a can of chocolate frosting for the filling and outside of the cake, and we use Oreo cookies and Milano cookies for decoration. All of this means that you don't have to fuss with from-scratch cake batters and buttercreams, giving you more time to plan and decorate your home for a Halloween party. The face of each Milano cookie has gravestone messages written in black decorating icing before being pushed into the surface of the cake to give the illusion of gravestones. Oreo cookies are crushed and pressed against the sides of the cake and sprinkled in mounds on top of the cake to look like the freshly turned soil of a grave. This simple and cute cake takes no more than 30 minutes of hands-on time, so get spooky and decorate this graveyard in a flash.

Categories     Cakes

Total Time 1 hours 45 minutes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (15.25-oz.) box Devil's Food cake mix
1 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
20 Oreo cookies, white icing removed from centers
1 (16-oz.) can chocolate frosting
Black decorating icing
3 Milano cookies

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease two 8-inch round metal cake pans with cooking spray and line the bottoms of each pan with 8-inch circles of parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Prepare cake mix according to package instructions with water, oil, and eggs. Pour batter into prepared cake pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, 26 to 31 minutes. Allow cake layers to cool completely, about 45 minutes.
  • While layers are cooling, place Oreo cookies in a food processor and process until fine crumbs. (Note: you can also crush the cookies in a large sealable bag.) Set aside.
  • Once layers have cooled, place one cake layer on a cake stand. Spread 1/2 cup frosting across the cake layer. Add second layer and use remaining frosting to cover entire cake. Coat the sides of the frosted cake in Oreo cookie crumbs by gently pressing handfuls of the crumbs against the frosting on the sides of the cake, moving around the perimeter and recollecting crumbs that don't stick.
  • Use some of the remaining crumbs to line the bottom edge of the cake that touches the cake stand to give the illusion of loose soil. Place 3 mounds of crumbs on top of the cake. Use black decorating icing to write gravestone messages on the faces of the Milano cookies, and stick the cookies into the mounds of crumbs so the bottoms of the cookies go into the cake and stand upright.

SPOOKTACULAR HALLOWEEN GRAVEYARD CAKE RECIPE - FOOD.COM
This is a great cake, perfect for Halloween parties, that is a take-off of the stand-by graveyard pudding. I noticed pudding is less popular than cake, and of course, cake is more suited for parties, especially those with kids. You can use your choice of cake flavor, but pay attention to the cookie crumbs you use in that case so they are compatible flavors. You also probably wouldn't want to use chocolate icing with a pumpkin cake, but if you wanted a pumpkin frosting, that would be good, or else use vanilla.You can use whipped cream to make the ghosties, but be aware that if you do this, the cake needs to remain chilled, and the whipped cream does try to sag and run after awhile (so don't do that too far in advance). The marshmallow ghosties are more durable at room temp. Those are often sold near displays of halloween candy, not necessarily by the bags of marshmallows.
