Feeling pleased with myself today...I am hosting a dessert and cocktail fundraiser this weekend for our family's Relay for LIfe team. I have been baking non-stop for the last week. 100 lemon cupcakes with lemon buttercream fosting , 100 chocolate cupcakes with chocolate cream cheese frosting, chocolate cordial cups with chocolate mousse, white chocolate cordial cups with white chocolate mousse, mini chocolate cheesecakes with thin mint cookie crust and mini traditional cheesecakes with graham cracker crust! Yummy...all stuff that in the past would cause a lot of bowl and spoon licking, not to mention just noshing on it because it was there. I am happy to say that this week I have had one mini chocolate cheesecake and one mini traditional cheesecake ( they were new recipe so I needed to try them before serving :wink: ) Hopefully party will go off without a hitch and raise lots of money and then I will be a really happy girl!
