Here is the requested recipe.
Carrot Muffins

Sift together the dry ingredients in a medium bowl and stir to combine.

Our 3yr old son and I are baking monster cookie bars. I am reducing the m&ms and mini-chocolate chips and including dried cranberries. I haven't tried this specific recipe before.

Yesterday, confetti cupcakes for my son's birthday, with green lemon-flavoured icing. Yes, he's 24, but he loves that cake and lemon is his fave flavour.

Made Nanaimo bars (I know these are no-bake but I consider them baking anyway ) and almond biscotti dipped in white chocolate today. Didn't screw it up, melted chocolate like a pro :D That's always been tough for me, to not scorch it. So I'm proud!

Going to try and tackle Butter tart bars, pecan pie bars and pumpkin pie bars tomorrow We have a boatload of pumpkin puree from our 5 little garden pumpkins. Anyone have a recipe for pumpkin pie that tastes like costco's? Or tips to get it to taste that way?

Apple turnover with a cup of green tea.

Banana bread with lots of walnuts and some glace cherries.

[Chantel]

Today: Pumpkin pie squares, butter tart squares with and without raisins, pecan pie squares.

It was a full day of baking. I even made the crust from scratch and it was amazing.

Update: Pie tastes close enough to Costco's. http://cookinfood.com/2012/11/12/bet...o-pumpkin-pie/ Used this recipe. Might use slightly less cinnamon next time. Made a double batch so I could use a whole can of sweetened condensed milk (because what the heck do you do with HALF a can?)
