Halloween Bake Sale Specials....
1 Cup of Softened Butter
1 Teaspoon of Salt
1 Teaspoon of Vanilla
3 c. of Flour
1 1/2 c. of Granulated Sugar (I use half brown sugar )
2 Large Egg
2 tsp. of Baking Powder
*Preheat the oven to 375°F.
*Cream the butter and sugar.
*Beat eggs and vanilla into the butter / sugar mixture.
*In a separate bowl, sift together the baking powder, salt and flour.
*Mix the sifted dry ingredients in with the wet ingredients one cup at a time, and continue mixing until the dough becomes stiff.
*Divide the dough in half and refrigerate 1 hour or more.
*On a floured surface, roll each half of the dough until it's approximately 1/8" thick.
*Cut out cookies using floured cookie cutters.
*Bake the cookies on an parchment covered cookie sheet for 6 - 8 minutes, or until they're golden brown.
*Let the cookies cool before frosting.
**It works best in a mixing bowl with a whip. I let it go to get all the lumps out.

Fold Over Apple Torte
Been so busy lately,just trying to keep up. It makes it hard to post as much as I did. But, this torte came out pretty good. I didn't have any pears on hand, so I replaced it with apples instead. Everyone enjoyed it here and you will too!
Thanks to Cakelaw of Laws of the Kitchen for hosting this week’s Tuesdays with Dorie selection. If you would like the recipe, visit her blog or buy the book.

Double Apple Bundt Cake
Another Apple recipe this week from the TWD group...YEA!, because we have a lot of apples here still. This recipe is super easy and fast to do. One simple tip is to not take the skin off the apples and cut them into small pieces. Once baked, you will never know the skin was there. Just think of the nutrition in that.....
I made a Caramel Frosting for the top, and then drizzled with caramel used for candy apples. Delish!
