The Walking Dead Cake
Its October which means two things its my birthday month and The Walking Dead comes back on tv !!!! I didn't become a fan of the show until the third season was coming on and I discovered it because they were have a marathon and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Well lets just say after a couple of episodes I was hooked and loved it and since then haven't missed an episode. So when the season premiere came on last year and Negan was to be revealed I made my first Walking Dead cake which has been my biggest hit on youtube so far which deserves it own post because its an awesome cake. So for this cake I decided I needed a little bit of each side to be represented on this cake. The Brain with the blood on it, is in the center which is a walker brain, then I made Lucille, Negan's bat sticking out on one side and an arrow coming out beneath the brain for Daryl.

I had two make two batches of rice crispy for this cake one was for the bat and the other was for the brain mold, and of course some left over for a snack!! I colored them red but its not a must for some reason I always throw in color because if not they are kinda boring. 
10X10 pan sprayed with non-stick cooking spray
I poured the entire bowl into the pan and baked it then cut it into two layers with a serrated knife to make two layers.
For a cake to look so gross on the outside it looked so pretty on the inside and it was a great tasting cake. I used a simple white cake recipe that I use a lot.
