Fudge Crinkles

Did you ever think it was possible to make cookies from cake mix? I didn't either, until I cam across this recipe on Food.com (formerly RecipeZaar.com). I discovered these cookies about four years ago while browsing the website for some Christmas desserts. 

These cookies have a really high rating and are sure to be a crowd pleaser! 

Not a huge fan of chocolate? Well guess what? You can play around with different varieties of cake mixes and create your own cookie.  For example, you can use yellow cake mix and add in chocolate chips, walnuts, oatmeal, etc, and omit the powdered sugar. 

The ideas are endless!!

Great Gift Idea: Homemade Baked Goods


It's time to start thinking about Christmas now that Thanksgiving is over. I've always been the type of person who likes giving gifts to those I love. When they're happy, I'm happy. I tend to make baked goods for friends and family just because, and what better time to do that than Christmas?

I was at Michaels the other day and spotted these adorable tins.  I immediately pictured how perfect Hautties would look arranged in these festive tins.

Baked goods always make a great gift. It's all about the packaging.
