Spooky Spider Cake

SPIDER CAKE
1 4-serving package green gelatin or pistachio pudding
1 18.5oz. package cake mix, any flavor
1 16oz. can chocolate frosting
Blue food coloring
8 black licorice sticks
Gumdrops, M&M’s or other round candy for eyes
Prepare the gelatin or pudding according to package directions and let set (if gelatin, whip well in a blender or mixer once set). Prepare the cake mix according to package directions, except bake the cake in 2 metal or oven proof bowls, one bigger than the other. Unmold, cut the bigger cake (to be the spider’s body) in half horizontally. Carefully scoop out hole in each half. Fill with pudding or whipped gelatin and reattach the halves. Mix the blue food coloring into the chocolate frosting to make it black, frost both cakes. Place the small one on top of the large one on a serving platter. Use licorice sticks as legs. Put on candy eyes. Makes 10 to 12 servings.
