Austin's Minecraft Cake

There was so much involved in making Austin's cake that it has to be its own post.  It took a while to do but he enjoyed it!

Ingredients

• 2 Boxes Cake Mix (Any flavor, just two different colors for the blocks)
• 1 Package Blue Jello
• 1 Package Red Jello
• 1 Container White Icing
• 1 Package Sweetened Coconut
• Few Drops Green Food Coloring

Directions

1. Prepare both Jello packages according to the directions and refrigerate.
2. Prepare both cake mixes according to the directions in two square pans each.
3. While the cakes are baking, mix a couple of drops of green food coloring in with the coconut until well coated.  Add additional drops if you want the grass to be darker.
4. To the coconut mixture add the icing and mix until well coated.  Set aside.
5. After the cakes have cooled, place one upside down on a cutting board.  Set a ruler next to the cake and eyeball cuts every 2 inches.  Set the smaller pieces to the side.
6. Repeat step 5 for the other 3 pans.
7. Line a cookie sheet (not flat but one that's at least 1/2 inch deep) with aluminum foil.
8. Stack the 2 inch pieces of cake in a pattern of your choosing on the cookie sheet, alternating or randomly placing the two different cakes.  Leave empty spaces for the jello.
   
9. Spread the icing mixture on the topmost layer, dripping some down the sides.
   
10. By this time the Jello should be gelled (is that even a word?) enough.  Scoop out each Jello and place it in the spaces you left.
    
11. Add candles or any other decorations.
    
12. Enjoy!
    

I ate the little leftover pieces plain ;)
