Lego Cake

This weekend my Lego-obsessed son had a Lego birthday party with his friends. It was a little crazy with 14 nine year olds but they had a blast! I made this cute Lego cake for his party. I've seen a few different ways to make a Lego cake but most of them involve cutting the cake into different pieces. I'm just not very good at baking, cutting, and then frosting so I decided to do it this way. It was super easy and it was a huge hit with the kids.

Lego Cake
1 cake mix or cake recipe
4-5 cups frosting
food coloring
6 Oreo cookies

Grease and flour an 8x8 baking dish and a bread loaf pan. Prepare cake mix or cake recipe. Divide evenly between baking pans. Bake according to directions until toothpick comes out clean (it will probably take about 30 minutes). Cool completely and remove from pans.

After preparing frosting, divide it in half and mix desired food coloring in each half. Frost each cake. Generously coat each Oreo cookie with frosting and place on cake. Smooth frosting to make it even.
