Dirt Cake! This project is fun for kids and adults and sure beats the traditional birthday cake every year. You will need: a large clean plastic or terra cotta flower pot, a baked chocolate cake, chocolate cookies (optional), chocolate syrup, clean fake flowers, gummy worms, plastic bugs (optional). Cut the cake up into pieces and dump it into the flower pot. Pour some of the chocolate syrup (about 1/4 cup) over the top and mix in in with the cake pieces so it looks like dirt. You may want to save some of the cake or crush up some chocolate cookies to sprinkle over the top. Add one or two worms poking out of the soil and stick in the fake flowers. Add a few bugs to the top and voila! You have dirt cake. For parties, keep a bowl of gummy worms on the table and put one on each plate when you serve the cake - you may want to use a big spoon or an ice cream scoop. |

Muenster Beetles
Cut cheese into 2" x 1" rectangular blocks. Gently insert three chow mein noodles on each side of cheese block for legs. Using two broken chow mein noodles, insert into "head" as antennae. Note: Cheddar makes a bright and colorful beetle, but can be very frustrating for little fingers as the cheese is a bit too hard to press the noodles into without breaking. Use softer cheese such as gouda, havarti, monterey jack, or even mozerella. |
