Fast food on Father’s Day? Dad will be stumped when you serve him this happy meal after dinner. Fortunately, this mini tray is actually holding some sweet treats in disguise!

This recipe from Bakerella features sliders made out of cupcakes and brownies, and sugar cookies cut in the shape of fries.

The instructions to make this dessert are simple to follow; mixes are used for the treats and coloured frosting for the “condiments.” Templates for the miniature paper box tray, french fry holder and tissue paper are provided as well, which you can print out yourself.

What you’ll need:
• Fudge brownie mix
• Sugar cookie mix
• Sugar
• Yellow cake mix
• Buttermilk
• Paper liners
• Circle cutters
• Canned vanilla frosting
• Icing colours
• Sesame seeds

For full instructions, check out the Fast Food Fun recipe on the Bakerella site. Dad is sure to be impressed by this charming dessert, especially when he realizes it’s not your typical fast food order. Burgers and fries have never tasted so sweet!
