There is NOTHING to this recipe. I did it for my son’s 1st birthday in like 5 seconds flat, and it was pretty cute.
All you do is buy colored cake mix (they sell them in single packages so you can make rainbow cakes with them). If you don’t have blue cake mix, then use blue food coloring in white cake mix. I know, food coloring is scary. Blah blah. I don’t use it that often, and neither do you. Splurge a little this time. It’ll be fun.
So you bake up your little cuppie cakes, assemble the eyes, paint on the face, and voila! 5 seconds flat. Any questions?
His mouth is pretty large, but if you’re not sure what it looks like, go google him.
Try and get his eyes kind of close together and cockeyed for a more authentic look.
