THE GREAT PUMPKIN CAKES
These are the ultimate confectionery tribute to Charlie Brown's Great Pumpkin. The little round cakes are surprisingly easy to make-just put two cupcakes together, frost and decorate with vines and leaves. -Sharon Skildum, Maple Grove, Minnesota

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Generously butter the inside of two 8-inch Bundt pans; dust lightly with cocoa powder.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine granulated sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla, canola oil, buttermilk, and 3/4 cup milk. Slowly add egg mixture to sugar mixture. Using the paddle attachment, mix batter on low speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake cakes until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack, and cool for 20 minutes before removing from the pans.
- Place both chocolates, heavy cream, and 1 tablespoon butter in a medium heat-proof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water. Heat, stirring often, until chocolate is completely melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and let cool to room temperature. Whisk chocolate until lightened; set aside.
- Using a serrated knife, trim the bottoms of both cakes so they are both flat. Spread chocolate evenly on the flat side of one of the cakes. Invert the remaining cake onto chocolate so that a pumpkin shape is formed. Place cake onto a wire rack.
- To make orange butter glaze, combine remaining 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon of milk and the food coloring until the mixture is a pumpkin color; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar and 1 cup melted butter. Add reserved milk mixture, and continue whisking until smooth. Working quickly, carefully pour orange butter glaze over the cake, tilting the cake as necessary to coat all sides of the cake. Let glaze set completely before garnishing with chocolate leaves. Serve.
PERFECT PUMPKIN CAKES
Steps:
- For the cakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut off the stem end from the pumpkin to create a flat surface. Set the pumpkin cut-side down, slice it vertically in half and scoop out the seeds. Lightly oil the pumpkin with the olive oil. Set the pumpkin halves flat on the baking sheet and roast until easily pricked with a fork, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before scooping out the flesh. Transfer the pumpkin flesh to a food processor and puree until completely smooth. Measure out 2 cups of the puree. Reserve the remainder for another use.
- Lightly grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin. In a large bowl combine the pumpkin puree and eggs, and mix together. Next, add the brown sugar, canola oil, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, clove and nutmeg, and mix together. Add the flour and slowly beat it into the mixture.
- Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tin and bake until a cake tester comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before removing the cakes from the tin.
- For the glaze: In a bowl, combine the powdered sugar, cinnamon and 1 to 2 tablespoons water, and mix thoroughly. Brush or drizzle the glaze onto the cakes.

Steps:
- Bake two bundt cakes in fluted cake pans per the cake mix instructions. Let cool.
- In the meantime, empty the frosting into a medium-sized bowl and add the food coloring according to your desired intensity of color.
- Remove one cake from the pan and turn it upside down on a large platter. With a bread cutting knife, slowly take off a thin layer of the top end of the cake to make the end flat. Do the same for the second cake.
- Take small strips of foil and place it around the bottom of the cake; butting it right up to the cake. This will protect the platter from getting dirty while you're spreading the frosting.
- With a knife or spatula, spread a layer of orange frosting to the flat end of the cake that is turned upside down on the platter.
- Take the second cake and turn it upright and place on top of the cake on the platter making sure that the grooves in the cakes match up with each other.
- Begin spreading the orange frosting around the ring between where the cakes meet to fill in the gap.
- Apply remaining frosting to the rest of the cake spreading it in an up and down fashion so you give the illusion of the lines you see in pumpkins. Make sure that you also cover inside the hole of the cake in the same way; at least half way down in the hole.
- Carefully remove the foil from cake platter.
- Now that your cake looks like a pumpkin, take the decorator's icing and with the straight piping cap, create swirls of vines around the pumpkin; then change out the cap and put on the leaf cap and place leaves where you desire on the vines.
- Now step back and admire your work of art!
