Super Bowl Cake

Today was Super Bowl Sunday and I had a good visit from my dad and brother before the game. Before they arrived, I had been preparing to make a prison cake for the game. I left the crushing of the ingredients to a friend and left for visit. When I got back, everything was laid out on the table, waiting for me to work my magic. I had thirty minuted before kickoff.

I didn't really care about the game. I've always enjoyed the Super Bowl more for the commercials that anything else. I was pulling for the Cardinals to win their first Super Bowl ever. Unfortunately, we don't have sound on any of our local channels, so the commercials and color commentary were out. We needed the cake to make it worth watching.

The cake was made from Ramen noodles (without seasoning) and oatmeal pies. I put just enough water in the noodles and pies to make them puff up and stick together. I made two layers which were both topped with crushed Oreo-like cookies, M&M's and Chick-O-Sticks and stacked one on top of the other. The cake was what made the game worthwhile, espeically since the Cardinals lost.
