Ingredients

Large doughnut cake base

1 white bundt cake
1 cup butter room temperature
2 cups icing sugar
2 tbs milk
1/2 tsp pink food colouring

Decorations

4 chocolate iced doughnuts
1/4 cup Uncle Tobys Cheerios
1/2 cup icing sugar
2 tsp cocoa powder
2 tsp milk
1 drop pink food colouring
1 handful hundreds and thousands

Method

Step 1

Large doughnut cake base: Cook your favourite bundt cake. Allow to cool.
Step 2

Using an electric mixer, beat together the butter and icing sugar until combined and fluffy. Add milk and beat well.
Step 3

Add food colouring and beat well.
Step 4

Once the cake has cooled, frost the top of it to look like icing on a doughnut.
Step 5

Decorations: Get two small bowls and put 1/4 cup icing sugar in each one.
Step 6

To one bowl, add the 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder.
Step 7

Add the pink food colouring to the other bowl without the cocoa and stir well.
Step 8

Add 1 teaspoon of milk to each bowl and stir well.
Step 9

Using tweezers, dip each Cheerio into the icing on one side to coat.
Step 10

Place iced Cheerios on a flat surface and repeat until you have as many chocolate and pink iced Cheerios as you want.
Step 11

Sprinkle hundreds and thouands on half of the Cheerio doughnuts.
Step 12

Assembly: Add some of the pink Cheerio doughnuts to tops of the actual doughnuts (you may need to use a bit of your icing to secure them.)
Step 13

Arrange your actual doughnuts in a pile on one side of the large doughnut cake.
Step 14

Place your tiny chocolate-iced Cheerio doughnuts around the cake.
