R.I.P. CAKE

Show:  Quick Fix Meals with Robin Miller
Episode:  Quick Fix Halloween Show
R.I.P. CAKE
8-inch square baked chocolate cake (from mix or scratch)
Store bought chocolate icing
1 cup shredded coconut

Green food coloring
White chocolate bar
Black icing (can also use semisweet chocolate morsels, melted in microwave)

Coat cake with chocolate icing. Combine coconut and enough green food coloring to make green "grass".

Break the white chocolate bar into squares for tombstones. Break off a few with jagged edges to look like old stones.

Place black icing or melted chocolate into a plastic zip-tip bag and cut a tiny hole in the corner. Pipe 'RIP' onto the chocolate squares. Allow to dry. (You can place them in the refrigerator for a few minutes for a quick dry.)

Sprinkle grass over top of cake. Insert pieces of white chocolate to make tombstones.
