What You Need

1 pkg. (2-layer size) cake mix, any flavour

1 pkg. (250 g) Philadelphia Brick Cream Cheese, softened

1/4 cup butter, softened

4 cups icing sugar

Few drops each: green, red and yellow food colouring

1 flat-bottom ice cream cone

Make It

PREPARE cake batter and bake in 12-cup fluted tube pan as directed on package. Cool in pan 10 min. Invert cake onto wire rack; remove pan. Cool cake completely.

MEANWHILE, beat cream cheese and butter in medium bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Gradually add sugar, beating until well blended after each addition. Remove 1/2 cup of the frosting; place in small bowl. Add green food colouring; stir until well blended. Spread half of the green frosting onto outside of ice cream cone; set aside. Reserve remaining green frosting for later use.

ADD red and yellow food colourings to the remaining white frosting to tint it orange. Spread onto cake to resemble pumpkin. Invert ice cream cone in hole in top of cake for the pumpkin's stem. Pipe the reserved green frosting in vertical lines down side of cake.

Enjoy this festive cake, but watch your serving size.

Fun Idea

Place black gumdrops on sheet of waxed paper sprinkled with additional sugar. Use a rolling pin to thinly flatten each gumdrop, turning frequently to coat both sides with sugar. Cut into desired shapes with a sharp knife. Use to decorate frosted cake to resemble a jack-o'-lantern.
