These first ones are from my cousin, Amy - how cute are these?
The Perfect Pumpkin RollThis recipe was posted on My Kitchen Cafe.
Cake:
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3 eggs
2/3 cup mashed pumpkin
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Filling:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup powdered sugar
.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 15 X 10-inch jelly roll pan.
Cut wax paper to fit the bottom of the pan and leave an inch overhang on each of the short ends of the pan.
Lightly grease the wax paper and sides of the jelly roll pan.
Mix the sugar, flour, salt, soda, cinnamon, eggs and pumpkin in a large bowl.
Once mixed, pour mixture over the waxed paper. Sprinkle the walnuts, if using, on top of the mixture. Bake for 14-15 minutes until edges pull away from the sides of the pan and center is done.
Lay a large dishtowel on the counter top (it is best to use a dishtowel without any texture - a tea towel or similar towel works best). Spread a thick dusting of powdered sugar all over the towel. When the cake comes out of the oven, turn the pan upside down on the powdered sugar-laden towel so the wax paper is on the top. Gently peel off the wax paper, being careful not to tear the roll. Starting at one of the short ends, roll the pumpkin cake up with the towel to cool. While the roll is cooling, mix the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar together until it is light and creamy. Once the roll is cool, unroll and with an offset spatula, carefully spread filling in an even layer over the cake. Roll it up without the towel and place in the refrigerator (covered with plastic wrap or wax paper) for about an hour before serving.

Bucket o' Goodies!!
I love those little 50 cent buckets at Target and this year I just did rub-on stickers. Filled them with treats and we started attempting these easy chocolate stick guys.
Ya, I know they look a little weird, but it was really fun.
SOOOOO fun to do with kids!

SOOOOO fun to do with kids!Hardly any mess!
Takes 5 minutes!
WIN- WIN!
Just buy those melting chocolates (usually at Michael's or even WalMart) and just melt them, stick them in a frosting bag or ziplock bag (cut the corner) and draw out your shapes! They harden pretty quickly or you can stick them on a cookie sheet in your fridge.

I discovered the nutter butter ghosts...fun and tasty! Have you seen my blog? You can also take kisses and stick them on fudge striped cookies. We can only make a few at a time...we eat them all!! Thanks for the ideas:)
We must be on the same time! Ok, I'm going to have to check it out!
I actually am waiting for my nutter butter ghosts to harden as I read this. I love those things and so easy. I'm going to have to try out the cute witches hat too. I love fast, easy and not messy things.
I don't know how you do it!
I'm attempting the pumkin roll tonight to bring to the Brad Coopers for Thanksgiving tomorrow... key-word being ATTEMPTING!
lol
Hope all is well! Tell Hal and the girls hi :)
