    • Funfetti Fudge

      I found this recipe years ago and finally decided to try it for Skylar’s birthday. It was really easy to put together and super cute to add to the birthday dessert display. It is VERY sweet so I would suggest cutting into very small squares 😅.

      Here’s what you’ll need:

      1 can of sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)

      1 1/2 cups of white chocolate chips

      1 box of funfetti cake mix

      Extra sprinkles

      How to make it:

      In a large sauce pan add the condensed milk and chocolate chips. Heat over low/medium heat and stir until all of the chips are melted and well combined.

      Remove from heat. Add the funfetti mix and stir until dissolved and smooth.

      Add more sprinkles and fold in.

      Prepare an 8×8 dish with parchment. Pour the fudge in to the dish, smooth and top with more sprinkles.

      Refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Cut into small squares and enjoy 💕.

      1 large block of almond bark

      Pink sprinkles

      Edible pink glitter

      Melt the almond bark according to directions on package.

      In a large bowl pour the melted chocolate over the Chex and carefully mix to coat. Add sprinkles and glitter and carefully mix.

      Skylar LOVES fall. She counts it down with her auntie and can’t wait for the pumpkin patch and fall baking to begin. What better way to kick it off than with cupcakes?

      We used simple a box mix and premade frosting to whip up an easy batch of cupcakes to decorate.

      What you’ll need:

      White cake mix (and all the ingredients to make it: eggs, oil, water)

      Chocolate frosting

      Yellow and orange food coloring

      Fall sprinkles

      Yellow and orange foil cupcake liners

      Piping bag

      Prepare the cake mix according to package directions. Divide the batter in 1/2 and add yellow food coloring to one bowl and orange food coloring to the other bowl.

      We mixed in some sprinkles as well to add little pops of color once they’ve baked.

      Fill the cupcake pan with 1/3 cup of batter. Bake according to package directions.

      Cool, frost and enjoy ❤️

      We usually make this at Christmas, but with the arrival of Grady, we didn’t get to it. We changed the colors of the chocolate to make it more up Skylar’s alley.

      Here’s what you’ll need:

      Pretzels

      Peanuts

      M&ms

      Chex (corn and rice)

      White baking chocolate

      Food coloring

      Mix everything except the baking chocolate and food coloring together in a large bowl.

      Melt the chocolate in a large glass bowl.

      Add food coloring.

      Pour over the mix and coat completely. Pour out on a baking sheet lined with wax paper.

      Melt more chocolate and add another color of food coloring.

      Drizzle over the Chex mix.

      Refrigerate to set.

      Enjoy ❤️

      1 tsp. Baking soda

      1 tsp. Salt

      In a stand mixer, combine butter, sugar and eggs. Beat on high until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and mix until combined.

      In a separate bowl mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

      Combine both bowls and mix until it forms a ball.

      Cover bowl with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for two hours.

      Take out about 30 minutes before you start rolling.

      Roll out the dough and cut out cookies.

      Preheat oven to 375. Place cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 10-12 minutes.

    • Princess Barbie Cake

      Posted at 10:01 pm by Skylarsmama❤️
      Oct 24th

      Skylar has been asking to make one of these for awhile so we finally took the time to do it.

      We just used a simple box white cake mix, some food coloring and canned frosting.

      Prepare the cake mix to the directions on the box.

      Spray an 8 cup glass Pyrex bowl with cooking spray and coat with flour.

      Preheat the oven according to the directions on the cake mix box.

      Prepare the cake mix and separate into several smaller bowls to add different food colorings.

      Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean and cake is baked through.

      Allow to cool completely. Hollow out a small hole in the middle to stand the Barbie in. Put the frosting in a piping bag and frost the cake to make the dress.

      Enjoy ❤️
