Family dinner dessert time again! This time I made the outrageous brownies. Chocolate fudge brownies with chopped up milk chocolate bars and... Miracle Whip? Sounds weird but it worked! Miracle whip, mayonnaise, coffee and more recently prunes have scared me in dessert recipes but it is time to branch out and explore the unknown! The results are usually surprisingly yummy!
My husband's cousin just graduated high school and the family decided to throw her and her fellow graduate friend a graduation party since we were unable to have the annual Memorial Day Picnic this year. Her Mom asked me to make a graduation cake for the picnic. They sent us a picture of the graduation program and my husband was kind enough to sketch their mascot (the Spartan) with a graduation cap. The cake is made to look like the school's seal with a graduation spin. It was a big hit!
There is a bowling league at my work that almost my entire department is a part of... I am not one of them. My bowling skills are quite horrible. But others in our department are really good. In fact they are so good that they won the bowling league this year! So my advisor decided to throw our entire department a bowling victory party. I had promised to make the team these super cute cupcakes if they won. Unfortunately they were not the most stable edible creation and they ended up all over my passenger seat instead of at the bowling party. It was a shame but at least I have pictures...
