Since a brand year is coming i will present you 2011 Confetti new year cake!!!!

WISH ALL OF YOU A HAPPY 2011

Ingredients
1) 1 1-pound box angel food cake mix

2) 1/4 cup colored candy sprinkles

FROSTING INGREDIENTS AND DECORATIONS:

1) 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin

2) 8 teaspoons cold water

3) 2 cups whipping cream (unwhipped)1/2 cup confectioner's sugar

4) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Colored sprinkles

5) 2 decorative cake sprays (available at party stores)

6) Wire star garland (available at party stores)

7) 1 sheet of shiny or metallic colored paper (for year star)

8) Marker

9) Tape

Method

1. Follow the directions on the cake mix box, but just before pouring the batter into the tube pan, add the sprinkles.

2. Mix them quickly and gently with as few strokes as possible and pour the batter into the pan immediately. If you mix and pour too slowly, the colors may bleed and color the surrounding batter.

3. Make the frosting right before you plan to apply it so that it doesn't set. For best results, apply the frosting, sprinkles, and decoration no more than an hour before serving.

4. Combine the gelatin and water in a small saucepan.

5. Let it stand until thick.

6. Set the pan over low heat, stirring constantly until the gelatin dissolves.

7. Don't let it boil, as that would reduce the gelling power of the gelatin.

8. Remove the gelatin from the heat. While it cools a bit, combine the cream, sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl.

9. Whip them with an electric mixer until the mixture thickens slightly.

10. Gradually pour the liquid gelatin (don't let it set) into the whipped cream mixture and continue to beat at slow speed until blended. Then whip it at high speed until it's stiff and peaks form when you lift the beaters.

11. Frost the completely cooled cake with a generous, fluffy layer, making swirls and peaks as you go.

12. Add confetti (colored sprinkles) and the sparkly year decoration. (Tip:We applied the sprinkles to the sides of the cake by lightly tossing them against the frosting. After we stuck our store-bought metallic sprays entwined with a star garland into the cake, we cut a 2-inch star out of paper, wrote the year numerals on it, and taped it to the sprays.) Store the cake in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

After a hectic day of of work suddenly got a crave for whoopie pie

Here are the recipe!!!

Ingredient

1) 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped

2) 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped

3) 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)

4) 1 cup sugar

5) 3 large eggs

6) 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

7) 1 cup all-purpose flour

9) 1/4 cup natural cocoa powder, such as Hershey's or Scharffen Berger

10) 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

11) 3/4 teaspoons fine salt

12) 18 large marshmallows, (not minis)

Method:

1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon baking sheet.

2) Put the unsweetened and semisweet chocolates and butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl; heat at 75 percent power until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir, and continue to microwave until completely melted, about 2 minutes more. (Alternatively, put the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, but not touching the water, and stir occasionally until melted and smooth.)

3) Whisk the sugar, eggs and vanilla into the chocolate mixture until smooth.

4) Sift the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt into another bowl. Gradually whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until moistened. Switch to a rubber spatula and finish folding the batter together; take care not to over-mix.

5) Use a small cookie scoop or spoon to drop a heaping tablespoon of batter onto the prepared pan. Repeat to make 36 cookies, spacing them about 1-inch apart. Bake until the cookies spring back when lightly touched, about 6 minutes.

6) Cool the cookies slightly. Transfer half of the cookies to a rack. Turn the remaining cookies on the pan over, so they lay flat side up. Place a marshmallow on top of each flipped cookie and return pan to the oven. Cook just until the marshmallow begins to soften and puff, about 3 minutes. Cool marshmallow topped cookies slightly, about 2 minutes. Top with the remaining cookies, pressing lightly to make sandwiches. Cool whoopee pies completely on wire racks. Serve.

7) Store in tightly sealed container for up to 1 week.
