1. Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Make and bake 1 cake mix as directed on box for 2 (8-inch) round pans, using water, oil and eggs. Make and bake second cake as directed on box for 13x9-inch pan. Cool cakes in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Refrigerate or freeze cakes 1 hour until firm.
2. Meanwhile, in medium bowl, mix 1 container plus 1 cup chocolate frosting with food color to make black frosting. Cut marshmallow in half crosswise. For eyes, attach 1 mint to each marshmallow slice with frosting; set aside.
3. Using serrated knife, cut off top rounded portion of each cake to level surface. Turn cakes cut sides down. Cut cakes as shown in template. Place cake pieces on tray as directed in template, attaching to tray and each other with small amount of frosting.
4. To “crumb-coat” cake, spread thin layer of vanilla frosting over head and thin layer of black frosting over ears, body and paws to seal in crumbs. Refrigerate or freeze cake 30 to 60 minutes.
5. Frost head with some of remaining vanilla frosting. Frost rest of cake with some of remaining black frosting. To pipe on panda features, spoon vanilla and black frostings into separate resealable food-storage plastic freezer bags and cut small tip off 1 bottom corner of each bag.
6. Pipe or spread vanilla frosting on body to create chest. Pipe or spread black frosting on head for patches around eyes. Place marshmallow eyes on patches. Pipe or spread black frosting on snout for nose and mouth. Pipe or spread vanilla frosting on back paws to create paw prints. Pipe outline around body and front legs with black frosting. Fill in outline with additional black frosting so front legs have a thicker layer of frosting than white chest. Using metal spatula, create a different texture on the body and front legs to further define legs from chest and back paws.

材料：无盐黄油160g、细砂糖182g、本鸡蛋160g（小型的约4个）、朗姆酒15ml、淡奶油25g、蜂蜜10ml、低粉192g、无铝泡打粉3g、融化的黑巧克力适量

做法：
1、黄油加热至融化；
2、加糖搅拌至糖融化；
3、分5次加入蛋液，每次都要搅拌均匀；
4、加入朗姆酒，拌匀；
5、加入蜂蜜，拌匀；
6、加入淡奶油，拌匀；
7、筛入低粉、泡打粉；
8、沿不规则方向切拌成均匀的糊状；
9、将面糊装入裱花袋；
10、挤入模具中约八九分满；
11、放入预热180度的烤箱，烤制25~30分钟；
12、出炉，晾凉后用融化的黑巧克力装饰，即可。

备注：
1、黄油、鸡蛋、淡奶油等需要提前从冰箱里取出晾至室温；
2、这次偷了个懒，没有打发黄油，而是直接把黄油加热至融化，这样作出的蛋糕组织稍紧密；
3、朗姆酒起到提香的作用，没有也可不加，但香味会稍受影响。

小苏打1/4茶匙（1克）柠檬汁1茶匙（5ml） 盐1/4茶匙（1克）

椰香慕斯原料：牛奶100ml 椰子粉1汤匙（15克） 砂糖20克 椰奶85ml 吉利丁3片 鲜奶油160ml

做法：

1) 将可可粉，20克细砂糖放入牛奶中搅拌均匀，接着加入色拉油和蛋黄，每加入一种原料时，务必确保充分拌匀。

2) 把低筋面粉、小苏打、盐混合后过筛，筛入搅拌好的巧克力牛奶糊中拌匀备用。

3) 在蛋清中加入柠檬汁，将剩余的80克细砂糖分三次加入蛋白，并把蛋白打至9分发。然后分3次将蛋白与巧克力面糊翻拌均匀，倒入模具中。

4) 放入提前预热的烤箱，中下层，以175度的温度，烤45分钟，出炉后立即倒扣晾凉。

5) 将晾凉的蛋糕脱模，分成均匀的蛋糕片，厚约1cm，用慕斯圈刻出米老鼠形状（或你需要的形状）备用。

6) 把椰子粉、砂糖、椰奶倒入牛奶中，用中火加热。将吉利丁用冷水泡软，加入煮热的牛奶中搅化后，自然冷却备用。

7) 用打蛋器把淡奶油打至浓稠尚可流动的状态（图12），将晾凉的牛奶与淡奶油混合均匀（图13）。

8) 用锡纸慕斯圈的外侧包好，放入一片蛋糕片，倒入做好的慕斯液（大约慕斯圈一半的高度），放入冰箱冷藏凝固。

9) 取出凝固好的蛋糕，放第二片蛋糕片，将剩余的慕斯倒入，表面抹平，放入冰箱冷藏凝固。

10) 彻底凝固好后，将蛋糕脱模，在蛋糕表面筛上可可粉即可。

超级啰嗦：

**烤制的蛋糕坯子的尺寸要比慕斯圈的尺寸大一些，这样便于用慕斯圈刻出需要的形状。

**蛋糕面糊制作过程中，注意蛋白在和面糊混合时，不要画圈搅拌，防止蛋白在搅拌过程中消泡，影响蛋糕的成型。一定要从底部用橡皮刀往上翻拌，以免出劲，影响膨发效果。

**蛋糕出炉好要立即倒扣晾凉，防止蛋糕回缩。一定要彻底冷却后再脱模，否则也会导致蛋糕的回缩。建议倒扣时间，不短于2小时。

**吉利丁片要提前用凉水泡软，然后才能使用。

**将吉利丁放入煮好的牛奶中后，要隔冷水冷却，使慕斯馅儿变得浓稠，但冷却的过程中需要搅拌，防止慕斯馅儿凝固。

**慕斯液分两次倒入，等第一次的慕斯冷藏凝固后再倒入第二次，这样有利于慕斯蛋糕的定型。

**第二片蛋糕片要比第一片小一些，这样再脱模后蛋糕外表更整洁美观。

**这个分量可以使用八寸蛋糕模、米老鼠慕斯圈来制作。
