Let's get started!
Preheat oven to 325ºF
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt until well combined.
In a medium bowl, whisk together water, milk, oil, vanilla extract and eggs.
Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix well.
Grease a giant cupcake pan and fill both cavities about 2/3 full. Bake for about 75 to 90 minutes.
Once cakes have cooled, level off the rounded domes of the cake. Remove the cakes from the pan and cut off the pointed end of the cupcake cone.
Cover the base of the cupcake with brown buttercream frosting (PICTURE at 9:13).
Stack the two cakes, spreading frosting in between as a glue. Cover the surface of the top cake in pink frosting and smooth with an offset spatula.
Pipe a wave of pink frosting along the seam where the two cakes join (PICTURE at 10:20).
Time to decorate!
Use blue, white, and black fondant and large decorating tips to make the eyes (PICTURE at 6:00).
Wrap a candle with white and blue fondant and place it on top of the cupcake.
TaDa! A giant Chica’s cupcake for you to enjoy with friends!
