I have just returned from a Halloween party where the most disgusting, delicious, hilarious, and cleverly horrible dessert was served. Kitty Litter Cake.

Kitty Litter Cake is a concoction of demented minds, yet it garnered lots of laughs and marvels at how it actually mimics “the real thing,” even down to the tormented Tootsie Rolls used to imitate cat poop.

I just had to share this frightful Kitty Litter Cake marvel of modern culinary arts with you as soon as possible. I understand that you MUST use a new (never used)  plastic cat litter box and new (never used) pooper scooper to gain the full effect. Whew!

Kitty Litter Cake for Halloween

1 spice cake mix (or German chocolate cake mix)
1 white cake mix
2 large packages vanilla instant pudding mix, prepared
1 large package vanilla sandwich cookies, crumbled
Green food coloring
12 small Tootsie Roll candies

1 new kitty litter pan
1 new kitty litter pan liner (optional)
1 new pooper scooper 

Getting Ready
1.  Prepare cake mixes according to package directions and set aside to cool when baked.
2.  Prepare pudding mix and chill.
3.  Crumble vanilla sandwich cookies in food processor, scraping often. Remove about 1/4 cup of cookie crumbs from the whole batch. Mix a few drops of green food coloring into this ¼ cup of cookie crumbs. Make sure they are completely colored. (Note: You will have a small amount of colored crumbs and a larger amount of uncolored crumbs.)

Assembly
4. After cakes have cooled to room temperature, crumble them together into a large bowl. Gently combine with the chilled pudding and half of the uncolored cookie crumbs. (Mix in just enough pudding to moisten, but not soak).

5. Line a new, clean kitty litter box. Spoon the Kitty Litter Cake/pudding/cookie mixture into the kitty litter box.

6. Unwrap 6 small Tootsie rolls and heat a few seconds in microwave until soft and pliable. Shape ends so they are no longer blunt, curving slightly. Bury them in the  cake/pudding mixture. Be creative on placements.

7. Sprinkle the remaining half of cookie crumbs over the top of the Kitty Litter Cake. Scatter the green cookie crumbs lightly on top of everything. (These are supposed to look like the “odor-eating chlorophyll” granules in real kitty litter).

8. Heat 2 Tootsie Rolls in the microwave until almost melted. Scrape them up and place on top of Kitty Litter Cake. Sprinkle with a few cookie crumbs.

9. Microwave remaining 4 Tootsie Rolls until pliable and spead strategically over the top of the cake. For the ultimate shocker, take one Tootsie Roll and heat until pliable, hang it over the side of the kitty litter box, sprinkling it lightly with cookie crumbs. Yuck!

Serving
10. Place the cake-laden Kitty Litter Cake box on a newspaper on the Halloween party food table.

11. Sprinkle a few of the cookie crumbs around the outside of the Kitty Litter Cake box for a truly disgusting effect.

12. Serve Kitty Litter Cake with the kitty litter scoop. Watch unsuspecting party guests maneuver around this dish. They will inspect the glistening misshapen Tootsie Rolls suspiciously. Don’t be surprised if many guests pass on it; it really is that disgusting. But good!

Aren’t you glad you now have a Kitty Litter Cake recipe to include in your family cookbook for a Halloween treat, (or is it trickery)?

Happy Cookbooking,
Matilda
