Yes that is part of the Umpa Loompa song.
Anyway yesterday I made Rustic Chocolate Truffles. I found the recipe on Tasty Kitchen. An awesome website, if you have not been to it yet you need to go.
This is what they looked like while I was removing them from this container before you roll them in cocoa powder. They are delicious.
It was hard not eating all of them as I was doing this. But I told myself that not only that I dont need to eat all of them, but I needed to share with the rest of the family.
I also made some pumpkin bread and chocolate cake. You can find the recipe for the chocolate cake I made here.
This is not a very good photo but it does the job. I however switched up the recipe some and added some mint chips to it so now it tastes like a thin mint cookie. I love thin mint cookies they are my favorite Girl Scout cookie.
The bonus to this chocolate cake is that it has silken tofu in it! Yes I know that it sounds weird, and I was skeptical myself but then I found the nerve to try it and it tastes just like a normal chocolate cake. But has the added protein to it, which is always a good thing when it comes to sweets!
I would show you a picture of the pumpkin bread, but heres a fun fact I cant smell anything at all. Yes I can taste, just cant smell. Have never been able to I dont know why either.
So back to the story I set my timer and when it went off it needed about 5-8 more minutes…. well I lost tract of time and oh 25 mins latter I remembered that I should probably go check on the bread! Well the bread was a bit burnt. Not all of it and if I showed you a picture of the top and sides it looks fine, but the bottom is another story it was black, so so sad! but at least it doesnt taste too bad.
Oh well I guess that happens sometimes.
By the way Blaine did call me last night they havent gotten anything and will be home late tonight!
Hope everyone had a great Friday. And remember to enter the photo contest
