What's going on....

I know it has been over a month since I have posted anything, and the truth is I just haven’t had time to. Oh, and I really haven’t cooked anything in the last month either (except Thanksgiving and I did not get any pics :/). I’ve been really busy with work and trying to get myself back into school that this past month has just flown by. Another thing that has kept me from cooking and posting is that I have also been thinking about how I want to take the blog in a different direction and possibly even moving it (which I’m 99.9% sure the blog isn’t moving anywhere).

With all the said, here is the plan: I want to spend the rest of this month changing the layout, fonts, colors, etc of the blog. I plan on coming up with a new layout of how each post will look and what information is present to you and how it is presented (I even plan on going back and editing a bunch of the older posts to match the new format that the new posts will have). Last, I plan on coming back with new posts at the beginning of the New Year and posting something new for you at least once a week :).

Happy Holidays,
Amber

Skeleton Graves

Pin It

I love to go wandering around craft stores and look at all the cool stuff that they have. Earlier this month I went to JoAnn’s Fabric store (they have a lot more than just fabric) and wandered around all of their Halloween stuff when I came across different Wilton chocolate molds they had. They had chocolate pop molds, molds for chocolate covers pretzel molds, and regular candy molds. I saw a chocolate mold for skeleton pieces and it suggested that you make a brownie or cake skeleton graveyard and I just had to try it. This was my second attempted at using chocolate molds and I still think it’s a easy and fun thing to do.


Recipe Review:

This is not really a recipe just a fun thing to do with food :)

What you need:

Skeleton Piece Wilton Chocolate Mold
Melting Chocolate (chocolate chips)
Brownie or Cake

Directions:

Make your chocolate skeleton pieces using the mold. Then lay the piece out on a piece of brownie or cake to make a grave.

Serving Suggestions:

Would be ideal for food fun at an October sleepover or served at a Halloween party.
