Hockey Puck Cake

Hockey Puck Cake
Prep Time: 3 hours     Cook Time: 35 min      Ready In: 3h 35 min
Serving Size: 11




INGREDIENTS

2 8 x 8 in Chocolate Cake
2 Cups Butter Cream Icing or Frosting

1 1/2 Cup Royal Icing
4 Cups Semi Sweet Chocolate


DIRECTIONS


Bake chocolate cake and let cool. In this case, I have used a box of cake mix and followed their directions.
Cut the cake into 8 pieces. Crumble each piece. Make sure there are no big chucks because this will lead to lumpy pucks.

Mix in icing and crumble cake until smooth.

Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Form the crumble cake into a 3 inch ball. Put the ball into the center of a circle cookie cutter. Flatten the ball with fingers and remove cookie cutter.

Put the cake in the freezer for 15 minutes until solid. Meanwhile melt the chocolate in a double boiler.
Dip each cake into the chocolate and smooth out the edges with a spatula. Put the cake back into the freezer for 10 minutes. Take out the cake and decorate with logo.

Make three batches of royal icing, white, green and blue.
First make a white circle as base and let it set and dry about 25 minutes.
Now pipe a blue rectangle and draw in a hockey stick. Fill in the corners with blue and leaving the hockey stick white and let  dry for 25 minutes.

Lastly, with the green royal icing, pipe around the blue rectangle, leaving about 3mm space in between.

Serve it to any Canucks Hockey Fan : )
