Friday I attempted some crafty treats for my daughter’s school party and I must say I delivered!
I have to be honest and let you know I am NOT a baker! I am an eyeballer when comes to a lot of things so when I bake which calls for preciseness, yeah not working. Cooking is a little more forgiving, but baking not so much. Last time I baked cookies for a Christmas cookie exchange and it was disastreous! They tasted okay, but I like BIG cookies! And I made then way too big so they didn’t cook right. Therefore didn’t cool right, and just stuck together which resulted in a cookie log chunk! Some girls didn’t even want them mixing with all the other pretty cookies, SAD! But they were still edidble but yeah pretty? Not so much. This is my sister eating hers. She said they were good. I think she was just being nice……
So I must say I was pretty happy with myself when I did these! I love making rice krispy treats. No baking involved. It’s okay if the measurements are off and you add too many of the 3 whole ingredients! And I could go crazy with sprinkles! The dipping was a little tricky because they had to dry upright. And the dark and white chocolate melt differently and you don’t want it too melted. So needless to say I had chocolate dripping everywhere! To make them extra pretty I added some Tomkat Studio DIY labels! Easy Peasy and PRETTY! Yay for me! My mother-in-law thought I bought them somewhere. Hmmm, really?!? That made me smile and I could feel my head get bigger too! Ha. I am happy to know I redeemed myself after my Christmas cookie fiasco!
See cutie patootie huh? And YUMMY! Wishing everyone a wonderful day with all of their LOVED ones!
