I made a cookie monster cake

I really did it.
I made something I saw on pinterest and it didn't turn out looking like crap!
Not that I used the exact Pinterest pin, but it did give me my inspiration.
Perhaps that is why it actually turned out! lol

So here is my finished cake.
I did this for my son's birthday. He might be 17 now, but he loves Cookie Monster. Heck, I still love Cookie Monster, so it was really a fun project to do.
I stuck to simplicity when I did this one.
I just made the yellow cake in a pie pan, and the first step, after letting it cool of course, was the mouth and eyes. I made a stencil for the mouth using a sheet of computer paper, and put down just a little vanilla frosting and coated that with crushed Oreo cookies. Same for the eyes, just white frosting with a bit of the cookies for eyeballs.
Then I used the frosting that comes in a can, already colored blue, to do the icing that looks like fur.
The finishing touch was the bite size Chips a Hoy falling out of his mouth.
All in all, pretty darn easy to do :)
