Gingerbread Boys & Snowflake Brownies


IMG_0015

If you want to be the first person invited to the holiday parties show up with a platter of these little charmers.  Both were made with silicone molds which you have to extra careful with the gingerbread boys or they will lose a hand or foot.  But not to worry you always need to taste test to make sure what you are serving is up to your standards.  My grandchildren loves when I break one.  I just give them an icing bag and they go to town.

Christmas Stocking Cake


Christmas Stocking Cake

I found this stocking cake pan last year at the Goodwill Thrift Store.  If you don’t have a pan you can make a 1/4 sheet cake and cut it to the stocking shape. I made the Christmas trees with a candy sucker mold and the snowflakes on top are also made with a candy mold using candy melts purchased at your local craft store.

Christmas Tree Cupcakes


These little Christmas trees are baked in a silicone pan that the top of the tree is at the bottom of the pan.  I decorated them with mini MM’s, sprinkles and stars.  To find the perfect base I used a mini frisbee from Party City was the perfect size.

Refrigerator Magnets & Calendars


Refrigerator magnets are fun to make, as well as fun to receive.  A couple of years ago my daughter and I had a photo shot will our dogs and my granddaughter.  We used old Halloween costumes to dress up the dogs and even put the hot dog costume on my granddaughter. We put together a fun calendar for the family and also used the pictures to make refrigerator magnetics.  You can get buy the magnetic sheets at your local craft store and dress your magnet with stickers or borders.  I used Walmart to make the calendars.
