HOCUS POCUS!




tonight since we did not go out and about for some of the halloween festivites that are going on, we decided to watch a halloween movie. i made some of my cincinnati chili to make coney's and we sat in front of the tv and watched "hocus pocus". it is such a cute movie and mikey loves it.


for dessert i made some cookies. i got the recipe from all recipes. it was submitted by samanta (unknown last name)

chocolate snowdrops
1 (18.25 oz.) pkg. devil's food cake mix with pudding
2 1/4 cups frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 egg

1. preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C)
2. combine cake mix, whipped topping, and egg. mix well. mixture will be very sticky.
3. drop 1 inch sized balls on lightly greased cookie sheets. bake for 10-12 minutes. remove to racks to cool. store in airtight container.

now original author of recipe suggest that you roll the balls of dough in confectioners' sugar before placing them on the cookie sheet. i have never done this.

as you can see in the picture, i seached my pantry for some odds and ends in my baking section. i used peanutbutter chips, rolos, and marshmallows. they all turned out deeeelish!


after the kiddos went to bed, me and mike sat outside so he could smoke a cigar and we saw the most beautiful moon outside. i wish i had a telescope so i could see it even better. there is nothing that i love more than a big full moon (and its even better when it is orange!)
