HOW TO MAKE A KIT KAT CAKE
Step one:
Bake two cakes. I used a red velvet packet mix and a buttercake packet mix, but you can use any combination of cake – made from scratch or packet mix- that you like.
Step Two:
Once both cakes are baked and completely cooled, place one cake on a cake stand. Smear the top of it with icing/frosting and gently place the other cake on top of it.
Step Three:
Unwrap 10 Kit Kat bars and place a small amount of icing on the back of a bar. Place this onto the side of the cake. Continue until the entire outside of the cake is covered in Kit Kats.
Step Four:
Tie a ribbon around the cake. This will help keep the Kit Kats in place and finishes the cake off nicely.
Step Five:
Empty a large packet of m&m’s onto the top of the cake and you’re done!
Tips and Tricks
If you need to store the Kit Kat Cake in the refrigerator, leave out Step Five until just before serving. Otherwise, the coating of the m&m’s will be affected by the cold temperature of your fridge.
The Kit Kat Cake can be made a day ahead and store in an airtight container.
