This past weekend the kids and I spent a lot of time with pumpkin. Between picking them at the patch and carving them for the front porch, we were in pumpkin heaven. So it only made sense to get in the kitchen and make some pumpkin fun in there too. I was digging through my stash of Wilton baking pans and ran into the Ice Cream Cookie Bowl pan that I had completely forgotten about. Turns out, it’s pretty darn perfect for making a realistic shaped pumpkin when filled with Rice Krispies Treats. To make these, all you need is your favorite Rice Krispies Treats recipe, the Wilton Ice Cream Cup Pan and a few small helpers eager to celebrate Halloween. Alternatively, if you don’t have this pan, you could always just rolls the treats into a ball with your hands. While you’re melted the marshmallows and butter, add a little orange or red/yellow to create a nice bright orange color.
Once the molded treats cool, you can place two of them together to create a pumpkin shape. Crazy Domestic: Melted Snowman Cookies - StumbleUpon. I saw a picture of these the other day on Allrecipes.com and thought it was such a cute idea, I had to try it. After googleing it, I found a good tutorial on Stacy's Sweet Shop. I modified a few things to make it more simple for me (less homemade more store bought). To see the original Melted Snowman Cookie, and meet the inventor herself, go check out Meaghan (great name) @ The Decorated Cookie! Here's what I used: •1 package Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix•10 large marshmallows•Betty Crocker Cookie Icing (white and orange)•Wilton Decorating Icing Tubes in Black, Red, Green, Blue and Pink***it would have been a lot cheaper if I had just made the icing myself, see Stacy's tutorial for a good recipe)*** Here's what I did: •Mix cookie mix according to directions, or prepare your favorite cut out sugar cookie recipe, then just grab a golf ball sized chunk and squish it down until it's about 1/4-1/2 inch thick.

Beyond smitten. Photo courtesy of Martha Stewart. It was more like obsessed. I wanted SO badly to do one myself... but never knew how to add my own twist on it.
I think I found a way. I decided to try and put trees in the midst of all those 'ruffles'. But then, I took it a step further. The inside of this precious little cake that nearly killed me to cut into I loved it so is a red and green striped ornament! And there you have it... I really hope you try making a ruffle cake of your own. For those of you sweety pies asking for a tutorial, I would be more then happy to do one... but we are currently on vacation! In the meantime, here are two very similar tutorials to give you and idea of how it all comes together!
