Halloween Graveyard Cake

24 Oct 2019 Home, Recipes

 

Hi Friends!! Two blog posts in one day, who am I??? I’m excited to share our Halloween Graveyard Cake that we’ve made not once, but TWICE this month!! We’ve been bringing it as a dessert to friends houses and it’s SUCH a hit with the little ones. It also tastes delicious because of a special little trick we do on the dirt 😉

Grace and Brian love baking and decorating this cake, partly because they sneak in lots of treats throughout the process, i.e. gummy worms and candy corn pumpkins.

Our Halloween Graveyard Cake is super easy to make! We found all of our ingredients at Walmart and the total cost was under $15. For a dessert that can feed 10-15 hungry little mouths, I’d say that’s a steal! Also, I don’t care what anyone says, a boxed cake is the best cake, do you agree?? They always come out perfect and light!

 

Halloween Graveyard Cake

Ingredient List

Chocolate Cake Mix

Chocolate Frosting

Cookie Decorating frosting

Milano cookies

Grasshopper Cookies

Candy pumpkins

Gummie worms

Glass Baking Dish

How To:

  1. Bake the cake according to directions in a clear glass baking dish
  2. frost the cake with chocolate frosting
  3. Take a couple handfuls of grasshopper cookies and place them in a ziploc bag. Hammer away at those puppies to make “dirt”.
  4. Spread the dirt around on the frosted cake.
  5. Decorate the milano cookies with frosting to they look like gravestones, and use the same frosting to put eyes on your marshmallows
  6. Place candy pumpkins, milano cookies, marshmallows and gummy works around on your cake

That’s it!! Easiest and cutest halloween cake everrr and I’m telling you the kids seriously LOVE it!!

SHOP THE POST

I love that Walmart is a one-stop-shop with the best deals around for making my life easy. Walmart had everything we needed from the cake mix to the candy pumpkins and I had been wanting a glass baking dish so I ordered one online to come in with our ingredients. We even picked up some candy for trick or treaters and some last minute halloween decor because the prices were so good! Have so much fun with your cake and don’t forget to tag @purejoyhome when you share it on social!!

*thank you to Walmart for sponsoring this post.

this morning I was thinking about the many changes this morning I was thinking about the many changes and leaps I’ve made in my professional career. I’ve taken jobs, quit jobs, started businesses, closed businesses. Each decision to make that change takes time, thought, feeling. Some moves immediately feel right, others you wonder if it the right thing to do. people react, but all that matters is what’s in your heart and listening to that inner voice. This morning as I was getting ready to leave my house and work out of our new studio I thought about all my leaps. Today is one of those. Here’s to the next chapter in our new studio.

✨ Life is beautiful, chasing your dreams is a magical experience that can happen over and over again. It’s all in the journey my friends ✨
