Slumber Party Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

Cake Mix
1 (18 1/4 ounce) package white cake mix, prepared according to package directions (*see note)
3 eggs (*see note)
1 cup water (*see note)
1/3 cup oil (*see note)
Decorations
1/8 teaspoon green food coloring, plus
4 drops green food coloring
2 (16 ounce) containers cream cheese frosting
5 Hostess Twinkies (see Note)
5 large marshmallows, flattened to 1-1/2 \" x 2-inch
5 vanilla wafers or 5 chocolate wafers
assorted decorative icing or cake decorating gel
decorative candy sprinkles

Preparation

Cake:
Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F and coat a 9\" x 13\" baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
*NOTE: Prepare the cake mix according to the package directions; I'm required to list the ingredients needed to prepare the mix (eggs water, and oil) but yours may be different.
Place 1 cup of the cake batter in a small bowl and stir in 1/8 teaspoon green food color; mix well.
Pour the remaining batter into the baking pan and drop the colored batter by spoonfuls into the batter in the baking pan and swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect.
Bake according to package directions; Cool completely then invert onto a serving platter.
Frosting:
In a medium bowl, combine one container of frosting with the remaining 4 drops green food color; mix well.
Lightly frost the entire cake with green frosting then heavily frost the top one-third of the cake lengthwise with the remaining green frosting.
Assembly:
Cut the Twinkies in half lengthwise and place the top halves on the lightly frosted cake section, slightly overlapping the heavily frosted section.
Frost the Twinkies and the bottom two-thirds and sides of the cake with the remaining container of cream cheese frosting to look like a blanket that covers the Twinkies (the \"bodies\").
Place a flattened marshmallow to look like a pillow above each Twinkie on the green frosted part of the cake.
Decorate the wafers with decorative icing to make hair, eyes, and mouths; Attach the decorated wafers to the marshmallow pillows with leftover frosting.
Using the decorative icing, make a ruffle around the edges of the blanket; Sprinkle the blanket with decorative sprinkles; serve.
(If making ahead of time, place toothpicks in the corners and lightly cover with plastic wrap until ready to serve.).
NOTE: Use more or fewer Twinkies on your cake, depending on how many \"slumbering guests\" will be attending your slumber party!
