Jack-o'-Lantern Cake Recipe

Ingredients:
2 pkgs. spice cake mix (regular size)
1 ice cream cake cone (about 3 inches tall)
4 cans (16 oz. each) orange vanilla frosting
2 Oreo cookies
1 pkg. (24 oz.) ready-to-use rolled black fondant

Directions:
Prepare and bake cakes according to package directions, using two 12-cup fluted tube pans.  Cool.

Cut thin slice off bottom of each cake.  Spread one cake bottom with frosting; press flat sides together to form pumpkin shape.

Place a ball of foil in the center of the cake to support the "stem".  Top with an ice cream cone.  Frost cake with frosting.

To decorate face: roll out fondant to 1/8 inch thickness; cut into desired shapes for mouth and nose.  Remove tops from two Oreo cookies; cut out half circles in filling for eyes.  Press cookies and fondant onto cake to make the face.
