Amelie and I spent a wonderful morning baking a cake and other confections. Our first cake attempt had to be sent down the drain because the butter wouldn't mix well. So we tried again using Crisco. This worked and we got the cake into the oven pronto; then, went to work on the Hershey's cocoa frosting...the taste could put you into a chocolate coma!I have issues arranging photos on my blog so these pics are in whatever order my blog wants them!
These are the yummy confections that we made with pretzel wheels, Hershey Kisses and M&Ms. Amels said she was going to make sure her Daddy did not eat them all.
The finished cake with a slice already taken!

We had to change Amels' shirt because cocoa goes everywhere when you blow on it!

Frosting the cake!


Amelie loved helping with the chocolate pretzel wheels. Here she is displaying a Hershey Kiss.

Of course, no cake baking session would be complete without the licking of the beaters!


The End!

Yes but Lu did not fare so well this time. We managed to keep most of the "goodies" on the counter. He did get an M&M, though.
