Patriotic Cake in a Jar Recipe

Save For Later

I am all about easy grab and go desserts for a 4th of July barbecue. No one wants to mess with cutting a cake, or scooping out ice cream.

These adorable desserts are easy to take and even easier to eat. They can even double as a decoration on your buffet table.

Ingredients

• 1 box White Cake Mix
• 3 Egg Whites
• 1/3 cup Vegetable Oil
• 1/2 cup softened Butter
• 1 tbsp Milk
• 2 cups Powdered Sugar
• Red and Blue Food Coloring
• 1/4 cup White Melting Chocolate

Instructions

<b>Cake:</b>

• Mix up your cake batter by following the directions on the box.
• Divide batter in half. Add red food coloring to one half.
• Spray 2 9x13 inch pans with non stick cooking spray.
• Pour one color into each pan. Bake for around 15 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
• Cool completely. Cut each cake into 12 circles. A 2" cookie cutter will work fine.
• No cookie cutter? No problem!
• An empty tomato paste can will work just as well.
• Alternate 4 red and white cake circles in a jar.

<b>Frosting:</b>

• Cream butter in a medium bowl. Gradually add powdered sugar and milk.
• Add blue food coloring and stir until combined.
• Pipe or spread frosting on the top of the cakes.

<b>Star Topping:</b>

• Melt white chocolate in the microwave. Stir until smooth.
• Pour melted chocolate out onto wax paper until nearly solid.
• Cut out small stars using a small star cookie cutter.
