Fashionable Easter Treats

I would never consider myself a baker by any means but Pinterest definitely gets me reaching for the flour and measuring cups.  I went on two HUGE baking extravaganzas this past fall and winter and it was no different for the new season.  Here are three different Easter treats I made this week that were SO simple but came out looking so cute, and fashionable.  You all can for sure make them to spruce up your Easter table!

Easter Bark


-Buy all your favorite Easter treats-- Easter moth balls, M&Ms, jelly beans, peanut M &Ms etc; go wild...
-Buy bars of chocolate (8 bars will fill up one tray)-- You can either do all milk chocolate or mix it up with cookies and cream or dark
-Melt the chocolate in the microwave and spread it out on wax paper on a tray
-Pour the Easter candy all over the melted chocolate
-Put in freezer until hardens
-Break up all the pieces and enjoy!




Peanut M&M Muffins


Ingredients:
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup of butter, softened
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
5 tablespoons of light brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 bag of Peanut Easter Pastel M&M’s

-Mix up all of the ingredients
-Put in cupcake tray at 375 degrees for 14 minutes
-Enjoy them fast, they'll go quickly!






Sunflower Cake
-Make your usual store bought chocolate cake in a circle pan
-Use chocolate icing
Outline the cake with yellow Peeps
-Place chocolate chips in center of cake and on the side


After 40 days of no junk food, I'm ready to eat it all!
