Gather your Ingredients.
Before you start baking, you will need to make sure you have a 10 inch round cake pan or shallow baking dish. I was at the store the other day and spotted these Unicorn chips. They are pink and blue swirled vanilla chips. How perfect for a Unicorn Cookie Cake. In addition to the chips I used Sprinklefetti Happy Unicorn Sprinkles. The rest of the ingredients are the usual cake or cookie ingredients. Flour, sugar, eggs, baking powder and vanilla.
Use Dye-Free plant based coloring.
SIS (simple is smart) steps to make the Unicorn cookie cake.
- Preheat the oven
- Mix together the dry ingredients
- Cream the butter and sugar and add the vanilla and eggs.
- Add the flour in 3 batches.
- Stop and scrape the bowl frequently.
- Put a 10 inch circle of parchment in the bottom of the baking pan and grease the pan.
- Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 30 minutes at350-degrees or until the edges are lightly browned and the center is set.

Decorate the Unicorn Cookie Cake.
Make and color buttercream frosting hot pink and blue. Alternately purchase Hot Pink and Aqua Blue frosting. The horn and ears are a Unicorn Cake Topper that I took apart and attached with some frosting. Put the blue and pink frosting in separate bags and pipe them together onto the unicorn cookie cake. (see the video). Add the horn, ears, flowers, and eyes.
