Cake Balls, 2 Jam recipes, and Graham Cracker Brownies

Today, Blaine finished the Red Velvet Cake balls for Aunt Terry (this was the second attempt with cake balls and we are still trying to figure out the best way to dip them and what is the best coating --so far we like the HEB Vanilla coating over the White Almond Bark and White Dipping Chocolate).

I made two recipes of jam -- blueberry and cherry. I have never made cherry jam before-- it turned out good. The blueberry turned out really thick with the plump blueberries still intact. Can't wait to try it on some homemade bread when Blaine makes some more.

We also tried a very simple recipe -- Graham Cracker Brownies. The recipe only has 5 ingredients -- 2 cups crushed graham crackers, 6 oz chocolate chips, 1 tsp baking soda, pinch of salt, and 14 oz can of sweet condensed milk. Mix it all together and bake at 350 for 30 minutes. How simple! We shall know soon how they taste once they cool some.

Sweet Girls Baking

Last year, Blaine and I came up with a name for her to put on business cards to get a few little baking jobs from recipes that she has made for her contests. We came up with Sweet Girls Baking, as we both love to bake and have hopes to one day either have a bakery or simply bake at home from orders. We love making cakes, cookies, muffins and just about anything sweet.

So, here is to Sweet Girls Baking blogspot -- we look forward to posting recipes and pictures of all the upcoming creations that we make together.
