This weekend was well-spent taking full advantage of this awesome new weather and upcoming holiday! Friday we sat out on Jeremy's deck around his new fire pit, which was lovely. It was good to see those of you who stopped by (quite a few of you!). Saturday we went to Oktoberfest at the high school (pretty impressive), then we carved a jack-o-lantern.
He's a skeleton.... ohhhhh... spooky!! I also made a candy corn/peanut mix (try it, it's delish), aaaaaaaaand...
... a pie! I cooked! Well, kind of. Here's the recipe. It's fantastic.Pumpkin Chocolate Mousse Pie:
1 c canned pumpkin
1/2 c semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 c milk chocolate chips
2 c mini marshmallows
1 tub Cool Whip (thawed)
graham cracker crust
*Put the pumpkin, chocolate, and marshmallows (mixed up) in the microwave for a minute and a half, stir it up, then microwave another 30-45 secs until it's all melty. Let it cool to room temperature, then fold in the Cool Whip. Dump it all into the crust, then put it in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
It's VERY rich and fantastic. A good Fall treat! :)
