This Week's Concoctions Ending 11/5

Here are some highlights of items that I made this week other than the "Weekly Cookie"

It was my co-worker's birthday and she wanted something with spice cake or pumpkin. Duncan Hines has a box mix that is Pumpkin Spice. It's nice...they give you the mix, frosting and a pastry bag. The frosting was a bit annoying and I kind of had to improvise because it wasn't giving me my desired consistency. So I didn't use the pastry bag.


This week at work we had a Halloween/fall food theme. I made pumpkin fudge. I have a hard time with fudge....the directions called for the temperature to be 234 degrees before removing it from the heat. I couldn't get it higher than 224 without getting nervous that I was going to burn it. So I'm not extremely happy with the firmness and consistency. The taste is very sugary.
