Kitty Litter Cake
This is not a recipe for the faint of heart, it really looks like kitty litter and its contents.  Surprisingly, it tastes fairly good and is pretty quick to put together.  This is an awesome dessert for a kids' party.  Serve in a new kitty litter pan with a new pooper scooper. 

1 package spice cake mix
1 package white cake mix
1 package white sandwich cookies
Green food coloring
12 small Tootsie rolls
1 box vanilla pudding mix -- not instant

Prepare cake mixes and bake according to directions on box. (I use two 9x13-inch pans to bake them in.)  Prepare pudding mix and chill until ready to assemble. Crumble white sandwich cookies in small batches in blender; they tend to stick so scrape often. Set aside all but about 1/4 cup cookie crumbs, add a few drops of green food coloring and mix using a fork. 

When cakes are cooled to room temp., crumble into a large bowl. Toss with half of the remaining cookie crumbs and the chilled pudding. Gently combine. Put mixture into a new, clean kitty litter box. Put three unwrapped Tootsie rolls in a microwave safe dish and heat until soft and pliable. Shape ends so they are no longer blunt, curving slightly. Repeat with three more Tootsie rolls and bury in mixture. Sprinkle the other half of the cookie crumbs over top. Scatter the green cookie crumbs lightly over the top; this is supposed to look like the chlorophyll in the litter. Heat remaining Tootsie rolls three at a time in microwave until almost melted. Scrape them on top of cake and sprinkle with cookie crumbs. Serve with pooper scooper.
