A lot of rain, time to bake…

We’ve had so much rain here lately.  Rain means we’re stuck inside so we decided to bake.  Everyone knows I love to bake.  Ella got a cool-bake oven for her birthday.  She wanted to make the vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting.  I was not really sure how this was going to work but we gave it a whirl!

Two days later it was still dreary out so it was time to bake…this time using the convection oven.  I saw on this blog a recipe for candy corn cookies so I had to make them.  When I went to Target to get the Candy Corn kisses I also saw Pumpkin Spice kisses and thought I’d make a cookie using them as well.  I made chocolate drop cookies and put the pumpkin spice kisses on top.  YUM!  Ella had new Halloween cookie cutters so we started off the baking with the sugar cookies and then iced them last.  I was exhausted by the end of the day!!

Ella had a very important job of unwrapping the kisses and she took is seriously. :)

  All the sugar gave Ella a tummy ache!  She’s pretty good at pouting.
