Butcher, baker, candlestick maker?!?

Daddy’s the butcher, Miles is the baker…. So does that make me the candlestick maker?

Miles and I baked yesterday…. on the suggestion of Aunt Beth! She posted a fun butterscotch recipe, Aunt Beth’s Butterscotch Bars!  They were fun and easy – perfect for Miles! He can’t resist an opportunity to pour, mix, and sprinkle.

However, we must let you know that we were forced to deviate from the original recipe.  The only butterscotch pudding we could find out here was sugar-free instant.  We had to bake the bars a little longer, but they still turned out GREAT!

First, we made the pudding.

Adding the chips… 1chip for the cake! 1,2,3 for Miles!  Its no wonder Miles likes to bake!

Time to get the cake into the oven… Bathtime and storytime to fill the minutes!
