Itty Bitty Ice Cream Treat

We go crazy for ice cream during the warm summer months and make it a date to have a "sweet treat" at least once a week! Now you can treat yourself without any of the guilt with these teeny-tiny ice cream cones!

Want to know our secret to these little guys?

They are chocolate peanut butter Bugles!

Just grab a bag along with your favorite ice cream & enjoy!

Kids love them!

Adults love them!

Just one itty bitty serving (we won't tell if you have 2 or 3 or 6)!

Less mess and less waste!

Sounds like a winner to me :)

Felt Princess Tiara

I had a request from a little princess. She wanted a tea party with her friends that included lots of tulle, glitter and of course tiaras!

I didn't want to buy the plastic store bought kind, so I made a felt version. They are super easy to make & in just a few minutes you can create your own.

What you'll need:
Glue gun
Felt squares
Headband
Scissors
Rhinestone crystals

Here we go...

First I made a template by freehand

Using the templates, cut out tiara pieces

Wrap your large felt piece around the headband. Run the glue along the center of the headband and press to hold the felt down. Next match up the two ends of the tiara and add glue to hold it in place. Glue down the rest of the tiara and cut off excess.

Glue down the smaller piece of your crown and add rhinestone crystals. You could leave them blank & let your guests decorate their own special tiara with rhinestones, sequins, ribbon, etc.

She couldn't wait to try on the first finished tiara!

I love how each guest will get her very own and original tiara!

Mexican Wedding Cookies

 Melt-in-your-mouth celebration cookies!

What you'll need:

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp. vanilla

1 cup finely chopped pecans

2 cups flour

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix butter, vanilla, and 1/2 cup of the powdered sugar with electric mixture on medium speed until light and fluffy. Gradually add pecans and flour, mixing on low speed until well blended.

2. Shape dough into 1" balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet 1-1/2" apart.

3. Bake 14 to 16 minutes. Cool 5 minutes on baking sheet. 

4. Roll warm cookies in remaining 1/2 cup powdered sugar until evenly coated. Place on wire rack to cool completely.  Add another coat of powdered sugar. Store in tightly covered container.

DIY Party Hats

 Party hats are a birthday staple, but ever notice there are not a lot of store-bought options? Even solid colors are hide to find, so I decided to make my own to coordinate our party theme.

What you'll need:

Party hat template

Pen

Scrapbook paper

Scissors

Glue (Elmers & hot glue)

Tissue paper

Pom-poms

Thin elastic 

Tape

Utility knife

1. Trace your party hat template on to scrapbook paper (you can search the web if you don't have a template) and cut along the borders.

2. Fold to shape your cone and glue the seam together.

3. Embellish with tissue paper fringe along the bottom edge with glue.

4. Glue a pom-pom to the top.

5. Cut a piece of elastic. Tape each end of the elastic to the inside left and right side of the hat.

Details from our Doc McStuffins party coming soon!

That's it! Your very own customized hats!

Chocolate Dipped Potato Chips

 Crunchy, Salty, Sweet, Chocolaty, Creamy, Savory...

What you'll need:

10-15 Lays Ruffles Potato Chips

Hershey Chocolate Bar 

Sprinkles

1. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.

2. Break chocolate bar into small pieces. Put in a microwave safe bowl & heat chocolate at 30 second intervals. Stir until chocolate is melted and smooth. Do not overheat.

3. Dip one half of the potato chip into the chocolate and gently shake (or tap off) the excess. Place chip on parchment paper & repeat. Add some colorful sprinkles, if desired.

4. Cool in fridge until hardened.

5. Store in an airtight container for up to one week. But be warmed, these are addictive & probably won't be around for that long!

 

Earth Day Treats: Worm and Dirt Cupcakes

What you'll need:

Chocolate box cake mix
Chocolate frosting
Oreo cookies (remove cream filling)
Gummy worms

Prepare and bake the cake mix according to the instructions.
Let cool completely.

Crush Oreo cookies in a food processor, or place cookies into a zippered bag and let your kids crunch them with a rolling pin.

Frost cupcakes with chocolate frosting and top with gummy worms.

Sprinkle the cupcakes with the Oreo crumbs and pat it down so it sticks to the frosting.

Enjoy!
Happy Earth Day!
