In my first blog entry, I really would love to impress my readers to the extent that I can't think of something special that will suffice my expectation. With the kind of pressure I am giving myself just to make this blogsite extra special than my other blogs, I will be sharing in my first entry something personal and original.
One gift I gave which really made my partner smile is these 2 heart containers which are filled with munchkins that I personally prepared. I didn't get a snapshot of the munchkins inside but i will be showing you the things to do in order for you to come up with this. :)
WHAT TO PREPARE:
1) Your munchkins =)
2) The heart containers.
In making your munchkins, you will only be needing a few ingredients: crackers (graham crackers perfectly suit this), condensed milk, cocoa, and some lovely food treats that will make your munchkins appealing: dessicated coconut, marshmallows, tiny candies for cakes, peanuts, chocolate syrup [this will add variation to your munchkins]
1) First you have to make your munchkins, just crush the crackers until crumbly then add cocoa and condensed milk. Shape it to small balls after which. You can also insert a marshmallow on some balls.
2) When these are done, roll the balls to the different coatings: dessicated coconut, tiny candies, crushed peanuts, and chocolate syrup.
3) Place your munchkins to cupcake wrappers. In my case, I only used white wrappers so that it won't be too annoying to the eyes.
4) Place it in the fridge.
The next part to work on are the containers. =) Well, it's really simple to do... Just buy equally shaped hearts in a department store, Php75 each. Then you also need a permanent marker so that you can decorate it like this.
What I did is design its borders like it is sewn, just make broken lines for that one. And then I wrote on it: ME on one of the hearts, then and YOU on the other one... On its side I wrote my name and his name. The key is making it simple: Do not overly decorate the outside.
If done with the two, you can now arrange the munchkins inside the container. Make sure that munchkins that have the same design should not be placed side by side.
Then place the hearts in a lovely paper bag. =) AND YOU ARE DONE!!! Hope he likes it!!
PS: It is important that he knows that you are the one who made the munchkins. Write it in a card or something:
