Boy, Did I BAKE!

I must admit, I got a little out of hand with my baking this weekend. I thought I'd end up with about one tray of goodies for hubs to take into share with his coworkers, but I ended up with 2 trays for him to take and one for me to share with my coworkers. Let me start at the beginning....

Here is all of the ingredients of everything I made:


Here is the complete list of things I made:

  • Pumpkin rolls
  • Sugar cookies
  • White chocolate cranberry cookies
  • Toffee brittle
  • Peanut Butter cookies
  • Macaroon kisses
  • Almond brittle
  • Banana bread
  • Chocolate zucchini muffins
  • Rice krispie treats
I started at about 9:00 a.m. and wasn't done until 3:30 p.m. It was A LOT of baking my friends. I'll walk you through my day in pictures...

This was after the first 5 things were done. In the very back is the peanut butter cookies, with the banana bread wrapped in tin foil in front of them. The rice krispies in the back right, the white chocolate cranberry oatmeal cookies in the front left and the almond brittle in the pie pan:


A much smaller pile after I've use a lot of the ingredients:

And  the chocolate zucchini muffins and macaroon kisses:

Putting them all together, I realized I was going to need more than one tray, and ended up with all three!

Tray one:


Tray two-in the center row you can see the pumpkin rolls..they were by far my favorite thing I baked! And tell you what, they are GOOD!:


Tray three:


And all together. Yes, this is a lot. I used four, yes FOUR, pounds of butter for all of this!:



I'll be back tomorrow to share the recipes for all of this stuff. You can wipe the drool off of your face now :)
