Cookie Monster Cake

I first made this Cookie Monster cake for my son's 2nd Birthday.

I baked a round 10 inch cake and 2 cupcake size little cakes in small Pyrex glass bowls. You could use a cupcake pan, too. ( I used 2 cake mixes and had some leftover to make a personal smash cake for the birthday boy).

Once the cake was cooled I trimmed two moon shaped slivers off the top and used them on the sides (toward the bottom) to create Cookie's jowles. (I just used frosting to keep it in place. Then I placed the 2 small round cakes at the top for eyes.

I frosted the eyes smooth with white icing and piped black google eyes with Wilton ready made color icing in a tube. I used the black icing to pipe the outline of the mouth and then a star tip to fill in.

I died the fur icing with Royal Blue Wilton paste (you need quite a bit) and used the Wilton tip #233 muli-hole to make the fur. You have to go quickly and change your icing frequently to keep the right consistency for the fur texture. But once it's done he's so adorable!
