Ingredients

• ✓ candy-coated chocolate pieces
• white cake mix
• water
• egg white
• vegetable oil
• white frosting
• green food coloring
• water
• coconut

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 (8-inch) round cake pans. Blend together cake mix, 1 cup water, egg whites, and oil in a large bowl with an electric mixer at low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Beat at medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared cake pans.
2. 2 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 23 to 28 minutes. Cool in the pans for 15 minutes. Remove cakes from the pans and cook completely on a wire rack.
3. 3 Cut a circle out of the center of 1 cake layer, leaving a ring that measures 1 1/2 inches from the outer to the inner edge. Place uncut cake layer on a serving platter and frost the top. Place ring layer on top of frosted layer and frost the sides and top of basket. Decorate the sides and top by pressing candy pieces into frosting.
4. 4 Combine green food coloring and 1/2 teaspoon water in a medium bowl. Stir in coconut with a fork until evenly tinted. Place green coconut grass in the center of cake basket.
5. 5 Cut an 8x16-inch piece of aluminum foil. Fold in half lengthwise 4 times. Wrap with ribbon, securing the ends with tape. Insert the ends into the cake top to create a handle. Fill basket with Easter candy and goodies, if desired.
