The little baker

Christmas is just around the corner and today was a bake fest in our kitchen!  Riley could not wait to help out with the goodies to be made!

First we made Dutch Apple Pie together.  Riley was so good in helping make the crust.  She added the ingredients needed, helped mix them together and even helped roll out the dough!!  She also helped me mix and sprinkle the toppings on the pies!

The end result:

Then we moved on to making peanut butter blossoms.  Riley unwrapped all of the kisses, helped me add the ingredients and was responsible for rolling the cookie dough in sugar.  She did an awesome job!

  

The end result:

Then it was on to making cheesecake.  We made a graham cracker crust bottom and Riley was in charge of crushing the crackers.  She also helped add the ingredients.

The end result:

Lastly, we made some chocolately pretzels.  Riley again helped unwrap all the kisses and then helped me add the M&Ms when they were ready.

The end result:

I am so glad that Riley wanted to help - she really did help me a great deal and I was able to get so much done.  she is turning out to be quite the little baker!!
