While the red and white mint candy canes tend to be the most popular flavor during the holidays, these delicious Christmas cakes by lifestyle blogger She Knows proves that the fruity candy cane flavors are just as easy to use in baking recipes.
This delicious cake is actually a giant sugar cookie dressed up to look like a fancy cake. Because the cake is made from sugar cookie dough, it is incredibly easy to put together and will take less than half the time to bake in the oven. Begin by making the sugar cookie dough and baking it in a cake dish in the oven for the required time. Once the cookie has cooled you can add a layer of white icing. Then She Knows divides the cake's surface up into sections and fills each with a different crushed fruit candy cane flavor to create a delicious rainbow holiday cake.
