Noah’s Incredibles 2 Chocolate Cake didn’t last until Noah’s actual birthday so we decided to make a “giant” Incredibles 2 Cookie Cake for his special day. I told you that chocolate cake was delicious. But I think this Incredibles 2 Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake is equally delicious.
Giant Cookies Cakes Are What Birthday Dreams are Made of
And did I mention this cookie cake was a giant?
That was Noah’s special request.
So I made it big – 11 inches big.
When Noah caught sight of that big pan, he was so excited!
Truth #1: The More Frosting the Better
My cookie decorating game needs a lot of work.
I can’t write letters straight to save my life, but I did my best.
And my rule is always “the more frosting the better!”
More frosting can cover up a multitude of sins in the decorating department.
I used the same Incredibles characters and the Incredibles Candle to decorate Noah’s cookie cake.
Noah actually helped me decorate his own cake.
I put on big dabs of chocolate frosting and Noah put the characters in place.
Truth #2: It Doesn’t Have to be Perfect
What I’m telling you is “it’s so easy that a kid can do it!”
Don’t be intimidated by decorating a cake … or a cookie cake.
It doesn’t have to be perfect.
Truth #3: Sprinkles Bring That Party Vibe
No matter what kind of cookie cake you make, sprinkles will always add that party vibe.
Even if you don’t have fancy plastic inedible decorations, sprinkles can make your party feel like a party.
So, let’s get to the recipe.
This is a chocolate chip cookie cake so I used my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe.
Then I added a chocolate buttercream frosting.
Everybody say it together – “More frosting makes it better!”
