Instructions
  1. Freeze the cake for two to three hours, then cut into four pieces (A, B, C and D).

  2. Step 2 Slice B in half horizontally to create E.

  3. Step 3 Stack A onto D for the engine bed, B onto C for the cab, and E onto D for the control panel.

  4. Frost the bed and cab red and the controls gray. With a dab of frosting, place an M&M in the center of each cookie to make the wheels, then press onto the engine.

  5. Add a pretzel ladder, gumdrop emergency lights, jelly bean horn, Chiclet headlights and jawbreaker controls. Use licorice to make a hose and outline the windows of the cab.
