Provided by Sandra Lee

Time 35m

Yield 12 mini cakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16-ounce) box angel food cake mix
2/3 cup coconut water
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 egg whites
1/4 cup marshmallow cream
1/2 cup coconut flakes, for decorating

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Beat together the cake mix with coconut water. Fill 2 (6-count) mini angel food can pans halfway with batter. Bake until puffed, golden brown, and toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 12 to 15 minutes. Invert the pans onto wire cooling racks and cool completely before removing from the pans.
  • For the frosting: Bring 2 cups water to a simmer in a medium saucepot.
  • In a large glass bowl that will fit over the saucepot, combine 1/4 cup water, sugar, corn syrup, cream of tartar, and egg whites. Place on top of the saucepot and beat for 7 minutes using an electric hand mixer. The frosting will be smooth, shiny, and form peaks when the mixer is lifted from the bowl. Remove from the heat and slowly beat in the marshmallow cream.
  • Frost each cake with the icing and sprinkle the tops with coconut flakes.

Yield Makes one 8-inch, 2-layer cake

Number Of Ingredients 4

Vegetable-oil cooking spray
Crispy Cake Basic Recipe
Chocolate-Marshmallow Frosting
Flower- and ball-shaped cereal pieces

Steps:

  • Coat two 8-by-2-inch round cake pans with cooking spray. Prepare crisp-rice mixture; before pouring into pan, reserve 2 tablespoons for patching cake, and set aside, covered. Divide remaining crisp-rice mixture among prepared cake pans. Press into pans with greased fingers to level. Let cool until set, at least 30 minutes.
  • Run a knife around edges of cakes to loosen; unmold onto parchment paper.
  • While frosting is still warm, pour onto center of 1 cake layer, and spread evenly to edges. Let stand 10 minutes. Place second cake layer on top; press down gently. Using reserved pieces of crisp-rice mixture, patch edges where frosting is visible.
  • Decorate with cereal, arranging pieces around top, middle, and bottom edges. Let cake stand until firm enough to slice, at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours. After 2 hours, wrap cake in plastic wrap to prevent it from getting too hard to slice.

Tips:

  • Soften butter and cream cheese to room temperature before mixing. This will help the frosting to be smooth and creamy.
  • Use fresh marshmallows for the frosting. Stale marshmallows will not melt properly and will make the frosting grainy.
  • Don't overmix the frosting. Overmixing can cause the frosting to become stiff and difficult to spread.
  • Chill the cake before frosting. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Decorate the cake immediately after frosting. This will prevent the frosting from becoming dry.

This simple birthday cake with marshmallow frosting is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and fluffy, and the frosting is light and fluffy. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a beautiful and delicious cake that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this simple birthday cake a try.
