1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ chocolate fudge cake mix.
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
1 box container Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy creamy white frosting
Black food color
Betty Crocker™ green neon gel food color
2 pic pieces black string licorice (5 to 6 inch)

Preheat your oven to 350°F (or 325°F if you're using a dark or nonstick pan). Follow the instructions on the box to make and bake a cake in a 13x9-inch pan. Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes before running a knife around the sides of the pan to loosen it. Then, remove the cake from the pan and place it on a cooling rack. Allow the cake to cool completely, which should take around an hour.
Once the cake has cooled, place it bottom-side up on a large platter or a cookie sheet that has been covered with foil. Set aside 2 tablespoons of white frosting from the container. Then, take one-third of the frosting, which should be around 1/2 cup, and place it in a small bowl. Tint the frosting black and set it aside. Next, tint the remaining frosting a bright neon green. Use this to frost the top and sides of the cake.
Refer to a picture as a guide for decorating the cake. Use a round tip with decorating icing to outline the hair and add licorice pieces for eyebrows. Use the reserved white frosting to form the eyes and the icing to outline the other facial features. Finally, fill in the hair with the black frosting. Store the cake loosely covered.
