Pumpkin Pie!

                                              
                                                    Making a Pumpkin Pie!    


Since it is now fall, I decided to make a pumpkin pie. I tried using the Libby's Pumpkin Pie Mix. 






For the pie crust, I used Kebbler's Ready Graham Pie Crust.





I am making two pies so I needed two pie crusts and two cans of the pumpkin pie mix. For one pie, you need to add 2/3 cup of evaporated milk and two eggs. Since I used two cans of pie mix,  I needed 4 eggs, and one 12 oz. can of evaporated milk. If you are making one pie, use a 5 oz. can of evaporated milk. 





 I preheated my oven to 425 degrees then I poured the two cans of pumpkin pie mix into a bowl, and added the eggs and milk. 




I only had a smaller bowl that was clean so I had to mix it by hand, but if you have a larger bowl, you can use a mixer. So when I was done mixing it, the mixture looked like this.





Then I poured the pie mixture into the pie crusts. I put the pies into the oven for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350 degrees and bake at that temperature for 50-60 minutes or until a tester or knife comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 2 hours, then your pie is done!





Happy Fall and Happy Baking!!

Blue and White Swirl Cake

So here it is....my first real cake decorating video and post! I made chocolate cake, filled with chocolate icing, and covered in blue and white flowers and stars. This cake looks a little hard to make, but in reality is very easy ! To start out, I baked two nine inch chocolate cakes, let them cool, and leveled them using my cake leveler. Then I filled and stacked them. I used store bought icing to fill the cake. More info on that below. I finally crumb coated them and put them in the freezer to chill for 15 minutes. For this cake, I made some American buttercream, and dyed half of it blue. I used some blue food coloring I had on hand, and probably put about 5-6 drops of in in my buttercream. I was worried I would not have enough buttercream to pipe on the outside of my cake if I were to fill it with my buttercream. So instead of filling my cake with the buttercream, I used a can of chocolate store bought icing I had in the pantry. So I filled and crumb coated my cakes wi...

Simple Star Cake

Today I am going to show you how to make this simple star tip cake I made using Wilton tips #1M and #105! I have a video is at the bottom of the page. It is one of my longest videos (8:00 or so), but I have included the recipe I use for Chocolate and Vanilla American Buttercream. I will have the recipe for my buttercream at the bottom of the page as well. The first thing we are going to do is make our going to do is make our buttercream. I didn't record it, but I had to make more chocolate buttercream to ice the sides and top of my cake. First, you are going to take your butter and cream it really well. I creamed mine for about three minutes, and you want to cream it until it is light in color. Once your butter is creamed, you are going to start adding your powdered sugar in four parts. When you add powdered sugar, flour, or anything else of the same consistency, always start the mixer out on slow so that the powdered sugar will not make a cloud and fly up in your face. This w...

Snickerdoodles

Since Fall is here, I thought I would post a fall themed recipe. So I usually use the recipe I have in my Betty Crocker cookbook, but today I wanted to try something different. I went online and found this recipe from Cookies and Cups, so check out her blog. I think I will probably use the Betty Crocker recipe, so I will tell you more about that at the end of this post. As usual when creaming butter and sugar, you really want to make sure you do it well. I think I creamed mine for at least 3 minutes. More time, such as 5 minutes, would be even better. Once the butter is all creamed together with the sugars, you are going to add your egg and egg yolk one at a  time.   Before we mix the eggs, we are going to add our baking soda, cream of tartar, salt, cinnamon, and vanilla. I didn't include the clip of me adding the baking soda because I didn't want you to get it confused with the cream of tartar, but don't worry, I added it. So once all of that is is ...
