Great cake for Thanksgiving! LOOK, it even baked up with a turkey in the center!! lol

  • 1 box Chocolate cake mix* (plus ingredients to prepare)
  • 1 box White cake mix* (plus ingredients to prepare)
  • Red, yellow, green, and blue liquid food coloring
  • Chocolate cake frosting (store bought or homemade)
  • NOTE*
  • For best results, it is recommended that each box of cake mix be the same brand. (I used Betty Crocker "chocolate fudge" and "white" cake mixes, and Betty Crocker "chocolate" cake frosting, and chocolate sprinkles.)
