I have to confess, I’ve had a little too much fun preparing for April Fools this year. It all started with making an April Fools Fried Egg and Toast<\/a> which quickly led to Jello Juice<\/a>. To help round out this breakfast of champions, I thought we needed to have some butter and toast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For the record, I’m no baker and I’m even worse at cake decorating. So when it came to making this cake, I decided I need to make the process as easy as possible. What I found was not only a simpler way to ice this cake, but also leaves a smoother finish then if I tried to spread it by hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The key is to start with a dense cake like a pound cake. (And yes, just go to the store and buy one. Nothing about this recipe is healthy anyway). We don’t want a cake that’s crumbly and airy. A light-textured cake has more crevices and will have a lumpy finish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The other key to success is heating up the frosting (once again, store-bought is fine). You’ll get something that’s pourable so you don’t need to do any fiddly spreading (which would drive me insane with a cake this small). One coat should be enough, but two coats will give a smoother finish (it also makes the cake a little too sweet for my taste. But it’s a small price to pay for art.). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Related:<\/strong> Breakfast Prank (Surprise Your Kids April Fools Morning)<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dad Stuff Tip: A long serrated bread knife works best for cutting the cake into a stick of butter.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n Dad Stuff Tip: One coat of frosting should be enough, but if you want a smoother finish, let the first layer of frosting set, reheat the frosting (you might need to collect the frosting under the rack), and pour a second layer. It’ll be too much frosting for that amount of cake (in my opinion), but it’ll hide any lumps better. <\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n You might also like these prank food ideas:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n I have to confess, I’ve had a little too much fun preparing for April Fools this year.
