Chocolate Fudge Faces

I bake because it gives me a time out from the everyday boring and sometimes stressful life. I also bake because it gives me the pleasure that I crave.
Also it is fun and adventurous every time. Not to mention all the delicious smells that fill the entire house and the happy and excited faces of the people who you bake for.

AH!! This is all the pleasure you can ask for.

Baking these cuppies were FUN FUN from start to finish. Starting with the simple action of beating the butter and the sugar and sifting of the flour and mixing everything together, to the coloring and shaping of the fondant. And best of all letting your imagination run wild. :)
