Easy Rubik's Cube Cake
"This cake was born out of the want to make an easy Rubik’s Cube Cake. The challenge was to come up with something edible and square that I could frost that would hold the square shape. I thought of many different ideas. When I thought of the Little Debbie cakes, I realized that I would have to put two of them together to get a square. I actually ended up liking that even better because that means that there is a layer of cream frosting the same color as the square when the cake is cut."
NotesYou can make the sides and top smooth if you want to. I liked the drizzled look that happened naturally over the Little Debbie Creme filled cakes.
