For all of you devoted readers, this is a repeat, but it bears repeating, don't you agree?

Kitty Litter Cake

Ingredients:
Chocolate Cake Mix (plus any eggs, oil, and water as directed)

Chocolate Pudding Mix (and milk, of course--you can use pre-made pudding, but homemade is better!)

Package of Shortbread Cookies (Keebler Simply Shortbread is my fave)

15-20 Tootsie Rolls

Blue and green food coloring

Small kitty litter tray, plastic litter box liner, and small pooper scooper to serve. 

Prepare the cake as directed, and cool completely.  Prepare pudding as directed.  Crumble the cake into a large mixing bowl.  Fold in the pudding.  Line the tray and pour in the cake-pudding mixture.  Level the mixture with a spatula (It doesn't have to be perfect). 

Blend shortbread cookies in a food processor, adding a few drops of blue food coloring to make a nice grayish color.  Reserve 2 tablespoons of crumbs in a plastic baggie.  Pour the crumbs all over the cake-pudding.  Add several drops of green and blue food coloring to the baggie of crumbs, until they are pine green.  Sprinkle on top of the gray crumbs. 

Form turds of various sizes and shapes from the Tootsie Rolls.  Microwave unwrapped candies for 10 seconds to speed up the process.  This is where you can show your creativity.  Turd forming cannot be taught.  It takes many years of scooping kitty poop to understand the subtleties of feline waste.  This is what will really sell the cake. 

Serve with the scooper.  Enjoy.  Or, at least, try to enjoy.
