I know everyone is going to whip up this little creation, so I'll type out the recipe in case the print is too small in the picture:
"Bake cake batter in round layer pans as directed on 1 package of our devils food cake mix. Prepare frosting as directed on 1 package of our fluffy white frosting mix. Frost cooled cake. On sides of cake, press into frosting at angles striped peppermint candy sticks. Place a big red maraschino cherry at ends of sticks. If you like, cross two candy stricks on top of cake for drumsticks."
Somehow the maraschino cherries on the candy sticks sound a little weird to me now... But, hey, the cake looks pretty dang festive, so that's all that really matters.

Can I use my EasyBake oven? Amazing what a lightbulb can do (wonder if I can upgrade to a twisty bulb???)
My sister got the EasyBake over.
Actually, I can feel myself gaining weight just looking at the picture. Time to walk the dog again.
oops, oven. Maybe I'm a little jealous.
That wonderfully coifed Betty Crocker/Mom of long ago--what a cake! Thanks for the memories. . . .
I love the lookd of this cake. Maybe I'd use a strawberry flavored candycanes, or cherry flavored, if they still had the white stripes. Hum...going to a 4th of July party, wonder if I can bring dessert?
I have my moms Betty Crocker from 40 years ago. But I tend to use Joy of Cooking...
if you're a Minnesotan, you have to use Betty (at least sometimes)
Yep, love that Betty! (My hubby and I toured the Betty Crocker test kitchens on our honeymoon in Minneapolis waaaay back in 1980!)
ooh, does that bring back memories.
