MEATLOAF CAKE Vegetarian-Dish

Ingredients

2 Round cake pans
Meatloaf
Mashed potatoes
Ketchup
Cherry tomatoes
Meatloaf cake

Method

  • Before baking divide the mixture into the two round cake pans and pat it flat
  • Bake as usual, but shorten the cooking time (these thinner meatloaves won't take nearly as long to cook).
  • While the meatloaf is in the oven, make a batch of mashed potatoes; add a little extra milk and whip with an electric beater until they are fluffy and spreadable.
  • When the meatloaves are done, invert one of them onto a round plate.
  • Cover the meat with a thick, even layer of mashed potatoes.
  • Place the other meatloaf on top of the potato layer, and finish frosting the "cake" with the remaining potatoes.
  • Garnish with halved cherry tomatoes to look like cherries.
  • Just before serving, decorate the top of your cake with ketchup. Write a personalized message, or just a simple "Happy April Fools' Day!"
