Football and Hearts
16 February, 2015
I should probably just concede that my posts will consist mostly of crafts and baking.
Football party brownies:
It probably would have been nice to make the stripes prettier (made from melted white chocolate chips), but I ran out of time. I also didn't have a football shaped cookie cutter, so I made one from a soda can (similar to my mario kart cookies). However, brownies are tricky to cut, especially around the edges, and the aluminum wasn't quite up to the task.
I also made chocolate covered peanut butter balls shaped into footballs. Those weren't very pretty, since I was still putting them together when people arrived. But at least they were tasty.
Valentine's Hearts:
These are the usual cutout cookies I make, as explained in this post. I think valentine hearts are my favorites.
I found some purple sprinkles from a Halloween pack, so that was nice to have some variety from the pink and red. I suppose I could make purple icing, but I have trouble getting the proportions right.
