Ingredients

1 box yellow cake mix with ingredients on box to prepare
1 can frosting I used Pillsbury, holiday red
1 tube Icing white

Instructions

Cup of Yum

Line a 13x9 baking dish with parchment paper. Prepare cake according to package directions, and remove from oven to cool completely.
Once cake is cooled, remove from baking dish, and using a flat spatula, slide cake out of parchment paper and onto a serving plate (or cutting board).
Spread frosting smooth onto cake top and sides.
Pipe on icing to resemble sweater. I used M&M's as buttons and added some fun decorations. ENJOY!
