Ingredients
For this graduation hat cake, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- 1 box of cake mix
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup of water
- 1/3 cup of vegetable oil
- 1 tub of ready-made frosting
- Food coloring
- White sugar
- Black edible ink pen
- 1 package of sugar cookies
Instructions
To make this graduation hat cake, you’ll want to preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, mix together the cake mix, eggs, water, and oil in a large bowl until the batter is smooth. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan with non-stick cooking spray, and then pour the batter into the pan.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before you begin the decorating process.
To make the "cap" of the graduation hat, place the sugar cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the cookies for 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool completely before you begin to decorate them.
Using the edible ink pen, draw the outline of the graduation hat on the top of the cookies, and then fill in the shape with white sugar. If you want to, you can also use food coloring to add color to the hat. You can use any school colors you’d like!
Now, it’s time to assemble the cake. Place the cooled cake on a cake stand or plate, and spread the frosting over the top of the cake. Then, place the decorated cookie caps on the top of the cake. Finally, you can use the edible ink pen to draw a tassel on the front of the hat!
