Witch Hats

These super cute treats will be the hit of the party you can find out how to make them here






Mini Caramel Apples


3/4 cup light corn syrup




  • 1 cup sugar











  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter











  • About 1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream, divided











  • 1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans











  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips











  • 1/2 cup decorative mini orange candies











  • 2 large red apples











  • About 20 slender but sturdy twigs, about 4 in. long each







  • Preparation

    • 1. Heat corn syrup, sugar, butter, and 3/4 cup plus 2 tbsp. cream in a 3-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat until mixture reaches 275° on a candy thermometer*, about 15 minutes, stirring often with the thermometer or a wooden spoon once it starts to brown. While caramel boils, prepare the remaining ingredients (you'll need to have everything ready before beginning step 3).
    • 2. Grease a baking sheet and set aside. Put nuts, chocolate chips, and candies on individual plates and set aside. Using a 1-in. melon baller, cut apples into balls (you should get 8 to 10 from each apple). Push thickest end of a twig into each apple ball through skin side to center. Set on paper towels to absorb moisture.
    • 3. Remove caramel from heat when at 275° and pour in remaining 1/4 cup cream, stirring until very smooth (it will come together after about 1 minute) and being careful of any splattering caramel.
    • 4. Dip apple balls into caramel, making sure caramel comes over edges of skin and letting excess drip off. Dip bottom of each ball into either nuts, chocolate chips, or candies, then set on the baking sheet to cool.
    • *You'll need an accurate candy thermometer. Check it by immersing in boiling water; it should read 212°. If it's a few degrees too high or low, cook the caramel to a corresponding few degrees more or less. If it's way off, get a new thermometer.
    • Make ahead: Chill until ready to serve, up to 3 hours ahead. Serve at room temperature.
    • Note: Nutritional analysis is per mini apple.

    Halloween Cookies

    Memory about Mom

    I can remember as a young girl my mother making halloween cookies for us. They were in the shapes of pumpkins and always had different faces. These were so much fun for us as kids because we could share with our friends. Halloween when I was a kid was a very important day to have fun with nearly everyone trick or treating, having halloween parties and having fun in one way or another.




    COOKIES






  • 1 1/4 cups firmly packed brown sugar
















  • 3/4 cup Jif® Creamy Peanut Butter
















  • 1/2 cup Crisco® Butter Shortening
















  • OR 1/2 stick Crisco® Butter Flavor All-Vegetable Shortening Sticks
















  • 3 tablespoons milk
















  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
















  • 1 large egg
















  • 1 3/4 cups Pillsbury BEST® All Purpose Flour
















  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
















  • 3/4 teaspoon salt



























  • FROSTING






  • 1 (16 oz.) container Pillsbury® Vanilla Frosting
















  • Red, yellow, and green food coloring
















  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
















  • 2 teaspoons Crisco® Butter Shortening










  •  

    1. HEAT oven to 375ºF. Combine brown sugar, peanut butter, shortening, milk and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat at medium speed until well blended. Add egg. Beat just until blended. COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Add to shortening mixture. Beat at low speed just until blended. Cover and refrigerate about 30 minutes. DIVIDE dough into thirds. Roll out evenly to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a floured 2 1/2 to 3-inch pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter, cut dough into desired shape and place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.

    2. TIP
      To make without pumpkin cookie cutter: PINCH off walnut size pieces of dough. Shape into balls. Place 3-inches apart on ungreased baking sheet. Flatten each ball with bottom of glass to approximately 3/8-inch thickness. Form into pumpkin shape, making indentation on top of round. Pinch off very small piece of dough and roll to form small stem. Attach to top of cookie. With a small sharp knife, score dough with vertical lines to resemble a pumpkin.
    3. BAKE 7 to 8 minutes or until cookies are set and just beginning to brown. Cool on baking sheet 2 minutes. Remove cookies to cooling rack to cool completely. REMOVE about 1/4 cup vanilla frosting from container and set aside. Add several drops each of red and yellow food coloring to remaining frosting. Blend thoroughly to a bright orange color. Add one drop green food coloring to reserved 1/4 cup vanilla frosting; blend well. FROST all but the upper "stem" area of cooled cookies with orange frosting. Frost the upper "stem" area with green frosting. PLACE chocolate chips and shortening in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on MEDIUM (50% power) 1 minute. Stir. If necessary, microwave an additional 30 seconds at a time until mixture is smooth when stirred. Transfer chocolate mixture to a resealable food storage bag. Cut small tip off corner of bag. Pipe lines and faces over frosted cookies to resemble jack o'lanterns.

      Matthew West Christmas Music Review

      I was recently introduced to Mathew West and let me tell you he is a very talented young singer. I was contacted about sharing with you about Mathew West and his Christmas Music but after hearing that I just could not stop listening and checked out more music by Mathew West. I have now shared him with my friends on facebook and all of you my readers here on Annies Home.

      Yesterday Grammy nominee Matthew West debuted his first, full length holiday project titled The heart of Christmas  Featured are 12 songs that provide an equal mix of Christmas classics such as jingle bells and original holiday tunes that have penned by West. Stars share with west by entertaining us with great songs such as Vince Gill (Leaving Heaven) Amy Grant (Give This Christmas Away) and Mandisa (Christmas Makes Me CryThe Heart of Christmas was produced by Pete Kipley You can purchase the music on iTunes at http://bit.ly/oixmMH.

      Expect a different type of Christmas album with this great collection of songs. With old favorites such as Silent Night, Jingle Bells and Have Your Self a Merry Little Christmas with wonderful new originals that will make you see a different side of Christmas music and make you smile, a tear come to your eye or open the world to see a different point of view. Songs like Give This Christmas Away, The Heart of Christmas and my newest favorite One Last Christmas




      The Heart of Christmas movie will premiere on gmc Sunday December 4 at 7p.m. ET. The movie was inspired by the true story of Dax Locke, the two year old from Washington Illinois whose struggle with Leukemia sparked a worldwide outpouring of support for his family and St. Jude's Chidren's Research Hospital. The story was so compelling that it sparked a "Decorate for Dax" campaign where thousands in the community of Central Illinois decorated their houses for Dax for Christmas in October. The song "One last Christmas" was written by West as a tribute to Dax and his family. Stars such as Candice Cameron Bure, George Newbern, and Jeanne Neilson are featured in the movie as well as Matthew West who will appear in the film as Mark Hurtgen. I for one will be eagerly awaiting the date to watch this movie that I believe will be awesome.

      I shared this information that was shared with me because  believe it to be worthy work of art that is worth paying attention to. I have not been paid for or received anything for sharing this information
