More Halloween Festivities!

Before Halloween, Katie decided we should do more Halloween themed baking so we had a baking extravaganza at her house! I haven't had time to post in a while because of the death that is midterms and papers, but here it is!



so yea... this happened.




we made a chocolate bark and put candy corn, pretzels, oreos, and swirls of peanut butter in it.


obviously some of it got eaten before we were done...

Katie really wanted to take an outdoor picture on the patio, but seeing as all of these lovely pictures come from my iPhone, it didn't turn out as artsy and nice as we'd tried...


But it was delicious!






While that was cooling, we made brownies!


Originally the plan was to make those little ghosts on top with marshmallows and frosting, but then we also decided to make some monsters and pumpkins!



Everything was obviously amazing and it was fun to bake with a ton of people!




I'm sad that Halloween is over but this means its time for Thanksgiving and then CHRISTMAS



so many themed recipes are awaiting...

Halloween! Rice crispy treats!

So Isla Vista's favorite holiday is fast approaching, so we decided to make a Halloween themed post to start the festivities! Coco came up with the idea for these rice crispy treats filled with cinnamon cereal, wafer cookies, and candy corn! We chopped everything up,
(ignore the menacing butcher knives..)
while we seperately melted all of the marshmallows together...
and then mushed it all together!!
We put it into the pan when it was all done and had to wait for it to cool before we could cut them up!
It was kind of difficult to wait when it looked this good...

Once we had waited long enough, we used some Halloween cookie cutters and made them into fun shapes!
In case you can't tell.. thats a pumpkin on the left, then going clockwise, its a ghost, cat, and a bat!
We melted white chocolate and milk chocolate and used dye to make them all into fun colors!
(I of course made one ginger cat instead of all black cats!)
The chocolate was just frosted on the top, so you can still see how pretty the actual crispy still is!
They turned out so cute!
