Christmas Tie Die Cake is the perfect cake to make!! Can you believe Christmas is right around the corner!! This recipe is a spin-off of the Firecracker Cake for the fourth of July. We made it a couple of Christmases ago and it was a hit with our family that was in town. (I have included affiliate links to products I love.

I love to make new Christmas desserts we have plans to make this cake into other color combinations for other holidays! Now I will say this was a lot of red food coloring to keep the red bright but it was worth it.
Christmas Tie Die Cake Ingredients:
- 1 Box White Cake Mix
- Green Food Coloring
- Red Food Coloring
- 1 Container Whipped White Frosting
- Sprinkles (optional)
- Ingredients the box mix requires (water, vegetable oil, and eggs)
How TO Make Christmas Tie Die Cake:
Preheat your oven to 325 F.
Grease your Bundt cake pan, this will help the cake to pop out of the pan easily.
Mix the cake batter according to the directions on the box of cake mix.
Pour 1 cup of mixed cake batter into a small mixing bowl and mix in red food coloring.
Next, pour 1 cup of batter into a small mixing bowl and mix in green food coloring.
Pour all of the red cake batter mixtures into the bottom of the greased Bundt pan.
Pour all of the remaining white cake batter onto the top of the red cake batter.
Layer the green cake mix on the top of the layered cake batter in the Bundt pan.
Bake the cake as directed on the pan until done.
When the cake is done baking allow it to cool for about 30 minutes and then turn upside down on a cooling rack on a cookie sheet.
Carefully remove the pan from the cake.
Divide the container of frosting into three bowls.
Microwave the first bowl of white frosting for about 5-10 seconds
Using a spoon drizzle the frosting around the cake
Microwave the second bowl of frosting for 5-10 seconds then mix a couple of drops of blue food coloring.
Using a spoon drizzle the green frosting over the cake and white frosting.
