BAKING DAY AT MALINDA'S

Last Friday was our baking day. It was a lot of fun but we did miss everyone that wasn't there. We got started at about 1 pm. We had to wait for JJ to get out of school so I could go down. We had big plans. Mounds, Oreo Truffles, Cinnamon nuts, Cool whip thingers, Gingerbread men. We almost did get everything done. We started with the mounds, than the Oreo truffles. Than the cinnamon nuts. We tried two recipes. one similar to Mom's and one we found on the Internet for spiced orange nuts. I still am not sure which ones I like best. Juan liked the one with just the cinnamon I think Josh and Doug liked the orange ones. I couldn't taste the orange zest at all. Than we made cool whip thingers. We made Dark chocolate ones Yummy. Becca really liked them. JJ just about lost his dinner when he tried them. After we dipped all the mounds and Truffles. We started on the milk chocolate cool whip thingers well, we burned the chocolate. So we gave up. We called it a night. So we never did get to the gingerbread men. I had to make them my self. JJ helped decorate them For FHE. I should have taken a picture of all of his really cute ones. But most of my neighbor goodie plates are taken out. I love to bake this time of year.



Cinnamon Nuts Yummy
All the mounds and Oreo truffles
The very happy bakers or candy makers. We may be a little delusional. It is toward the end and with all the sugar in the air and our systems it could be affecting us.
