Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottoms only of 2 (9-inch) round cake pans with shortening or spray with cooking spray.
  • Step 
    2
    Make cake batter using cake mix, water, oil and eggs as directed on box. Divide batter evenly between pans. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until cake springs back when touched lightly in center. Remove cakes from pans to cooling racks; cool completely, about 45 minutes.
  • Step 
    3
    Measure 1 cup frosting from 1 container into medium bowl. Stir in marshmallow creme. Place 1 cake layer on cake stand, cake plate or serving platter. Coat top of cake with half of the frosting mixture. Break 3 graham crackers into pieces; place on top of frosting. Cover graham crackers with remaining frosting mixture. Top with second cake layer. To remaining frosting in first container, stir in baking cocoa until well blended. Spread cocoa frosting over top of cake.
  • Step

    Into large bowl, spoon frosting from second container. Add green food color a little at a time, stirring well until desired green color is achieved. Frost sides of cake with half of the green frosting. Break 6 of the remaining graham crackers in half to make 12 pieces. Line sides of cake with upright graham cracker halves; press into frosting to adhere. Use one-third of the bottle of green sugar to sprinkle around top edge of cake. Refrigerate cake 1 hour to firm up frosting.
