Ingredients

  • For the Cake:

    • 1 box chocolate cake mix (about 15.25 oz)
    • 3 large eggs at room temperature
    • 1/2 cup (120 ml) vegetable or canola oil
    • 1 cup (240 ml) whole milk
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • Pinch of salt to enhance flavor

    For the Green Slime Icing:

    • 3 cups (375g) sifted powdered sugar
    • 3-4 tablespoons milk
    • 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • Green food coloring (gel or liquid)
    • Small pinch of salt

    For Decoration:

    • Edible candy eyeballs (available at baking supply stores)
    • Halloween-colored sprinkles (orange, black, green)
    • Crushed Oreo cookies (optional)


Instructions

  • Prepare cake batter with noted modifications (or not, whatever suits you), mix with an electric mixer or electric beaters. Stir in chocolate chips, if using.
  • Spray bundt pan with cake release, and bake according to package instructions.
  • While cake is baking, put icing in a bowl and whisk milk into it until you reach a pourable “slime” consistency. Add food coloring, and set aside.

  • Enjoy!
