You need a round cake pan, and one of the 'ball' pans used to make sports ball cakes (see right).Bake the round cake according to your recipe directions. Remove it from the pan when done. For the ball pan, you only need 1/2 of the ball cake - just one of the two pans. Follow the pan directions to bake this cake.

After
the cakes have cooled, place the 1/2 ball cake, flat side down, onto
the round cake, near the bottom. This is the mouth/nose are of the monkey
face. Frost with chocolate frosting. You can add white frosting to chocolate
frosting to make lighter shades of brown. Add eyes, nostrils, etc. to
make Curious George's face, and you have the perfect Curious George
birthday cake that was oh-so-easy to make!
