Have you ever craved pie, but you just wanted a piece or two? Or you want a flavor of pie that someone in your family doesn't? Well, I have the solution for you! I decided to make mini cherry pies that I baked in a cupcake pan and they were super easy and tasty. I had leftover homemade pie crust from Thanksgiving that I used, but you could also use store bought crust. You could also choose any filling that you wanted, but I just happened to have cherry filling on hand. The only ingredients that you will need to buy are pie crust and pie filling. This is a perfect snack for a night when you have your friends over and everyone is in the mood for pie of different flavors or just a midnight craving! My mom came up with the idea and we guessed on the baking amount.

Ingredients:

• Pie crust
• Cherry Pie filling
• egg whites (optional for dusting crust)
• cup for cutting out crust circles
• cinnamon and sugar (optional for dusting crust)
• cupcake pan
• oil for greasing pan 

Procedure: 

1. grease the cupcake pan
2. use a cup to cut out circle of crust
3. pre-heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
4. pour cherry pie filling into the crust 3/4 of the way full
5. cut four thin slices of crust and cross them over the cherry filling
6. paint on the egg whites over the top of the crust 
7. sprinkle the crust with cinnamon and sugar
8. place the pan in the oven 
9. set timer for 22 minutes
10. after 22 minutes, cool for five minutes and serve... ENJOY!

I took both of these pictures:)

If you are a chocolate lover, then you are going to LOVE the chocolate lava cake that I made! It was probably one of the fastest and easiest desserts I have baked in a while. The only other lava cakes that I have had are the ones from Domino's pizza, but I believe that mine came pretty close to tasting just as yummy! I saw this recipe for a crock pot chocolate lava cake on Facebook a while back, but I forgot to save it so I looked up other recipes that might be similar. None of the recipe's that I found had similar ingredients to the one I found on Facebook. I was a little nervous about baking by what I thought the recipe was, but the lava cake ended up tasting delicious! Next time you go to the store, make sure to pick up a chocolate cake mix, chocolate pudding mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and milk for the lava cake. It is also nice to have a crock pot cover so you won't have to wash the crock pot when you are done baking. Making the lava cake will be a perfect midnight snack or a for when it is a snowy, cold night!

Ingredients: 

• Chocolate cake mix
• Chocolate pudding mix
• eggs 
• milk
• vegetable oil

Procedure:

• Make the chocolate cake mix and pour it in the crock pot
• Make the pudding (skip the chilling) and pour it over the cake mixture
• turn the crock pot on high
• set a timer for two hours
• put the lid on crock pot
• after two hours, put the crock pot on warm
• Enjoy!

I took all of these pictures:)

Last week, I had to delete all of my Instagram accounts. They were making no progress. I was going to create a new account but my phone wouldn't let me. So I created a twitter account but that is making no progress. Even worse than the three Instagram accounts. So I think that I am going continue my project into next semester and create one Instagram account on someone else's device and see which topic get the most likes. From there I will see if there are more negative, positive, or neutral people on Instagram.

This week I attempted to make a caramel apple dessert pizza. I think that it would of tasted better if I wouldn't of burnt the sugar cookie crust! This dessert was very easy and quick. The prep time took about fifteen minutes and then you bake the crust for thirteen minutes. After the crust cooled, it took about ten minutes to put together the pizza. I liked cooling mine before I ate it too! This dessert would be perfect for the time around fall because of the caramel apples that are sprinkled over the top! The only difficult part about this dessert is getting the crust a perfect texture. If you think that the crust is looking golden, pull it out even if it still is a bit under-done in the center because it will still bake a little more in the pan once you take it out of the oven. My family really enjoyed the pizza and I will definitely make it again!

Recipe: http://www.thegunnysack.com/caramel-apple-fruit-pizza/
Sugar Cookie crust (can be bought at the grocery store in tubes)

Caramel Apple Topping:

• Two large apples, diced
• 1 can of club soda water (or ginger ale) 
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted
• 1/2 cup caramel sauce (ice cream topping) 

Cream Cheese Frosting 

• 4 oz package cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup butter, softened 
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tbsp half-n-half, if necessary

1. Beat the cream cheese until smooth

2. beat in the softened butter

3. Mix in powdered sugar

4. Add vanilla and half-n-half, if necessary 

Assembly

1. Press dough into a greased 9x13 inch pan and bake at 375 degrees for 15 to 17 minutes. 
2. Put the diced apples in the club soda water immediately after dicing them. Soak them in the water for about 3 minutes and then drain the water. 
3. Spread the prepared cream cheese frosting on the cooled sugar cookie crust. 
4. Top with the diced apples, sprinkle with chopped pecans, and drizzle the caramel sauce over the top. 

 

This is what it turned out to look like:) 

20 Time Week 12

This last week I created another blog post and video tutorial!  Go see it at www.everythingontop.wordpress.com !  I made my favorite cake frosting, German Chocolate Cake Frosting.  The picture I have included is from my most recent video!  As you can see, I’ve had a lot of fun making them!  This was in theme of my recent birthday.  Currently, I am starting my presentation.  I have been looking at and gathering stats from views on my blog and videos.  I hope to incorporate some clips from all my videos.  I am also starting to think about a recipe my classmates will enjoy.  I would like to bring in the last recipe I create this semester.  I will either bring it in after I make a video, of incorporate the class trying them in my video!

20 Time Update

This past week, I didn't get a whole lot done. However, I did finish uploading all of my pictures onto my computer, so now I just need to compile them into the video! My adventures have almost come to a close, except a have a couple more coming up over Thanksgiving break, including skiing in Keystone and Beaver Creek, so I'm looking forward to that! It's time to finish this project up!

20 Time Update

This week we had a short 20 time, but I got a lot done. I was able to complete my presentation plan and make sure I am hitting all the standards. The I worked on a powtoons that is going to be part of my presentation. I am a little stumped on where I want to go with that, but I am working through it currently. I am also working on a script for my presentation, which will help me with my slideshow. Next, I need to post another Instagram picture, and keep pushing through the presentation and the other trouble spots. Although my project didn't go exactly as planned, (probably because of my extremely high goals) I am happy with where I am at, and with a little more research I can make it amazing. So right now I need to dig in and work hard on getting this finished!

20 Time Progress 11/11 - Bigler

This week I started on the presentation for my project. I am currently working to make sure that every requirement for the project is fulfilled. I plan to continue filling my presentation with attention-grabbing details and to finish the “Presentation Planning” doc. I’m excited to be finished with my project and on to the next great idea!

During 20 time this week I accomplished a decent amount, I wouldn't say a lot but I did get some of my presentation done. I worked on planning my note cards for when I present, I started to plan out my slides and the order of them on my final project. Currently, I am working on finishing the 20 time presentation checklist that is on classroom. I plan to finish the checklist and my final project next.

20 time

Even though I have completed some of my 20 time project, I still am finding myself behind. I am procrastinating and I'm planning on continuing the project through next semester. I think with a little extra time and hopefully some improved weather, I can finish this.

20 Time 11/11/15

This week, I have planned how I am going to present my 20 Time. I am also finishing the plans for the presentation. Next, I will finish my presentation and start practicing presenting it.

Today I am researching a little more just to see if I can find anything else about my topic. Then I want to make a third family recipe to verify my results that I have gotten. Next week I will have my final results and finish putting all the information into my presentation.  I will hopefully finish so I have a few class periods to decide what I am going to say during my presentation.

This week I have to continued to work on my project. Right now I'm working on finding some pictures and working on my presentation to the class. I plan to finish my project and start to practice my presentation.

20 time week 11/11

This week I watched the last of my videos on the basics of game design and all there is left to do is work on my presentation. I learned how to use camera movement. It is pretty simple and easy to use.

I've been working with the Cinderella musical almost constantly the last week and half or so, so I haven't done anything productive for my 20 Time project recently. I'm really trying to figure out how to present the project in a different way, unique from anything we did in our science classes. I plan to take a break next time I get the chance and brainstorm how to make something creative out of my star information. I'll definitely have to work on this.

This week I started finalizing my presentation, and trying to get it longer to meet the time limit. So right now, I'm refining my presentation and trying to make it better. I don't really have anything planned for after this.

Blog Post 6:
November 11th, 2015
As it turns out, I am a lot busier than I though, and I don’t have much free time to work on this project, and I find myself falling behind. However, though I am not quite meeting the timeline that I had initially planned, I feel like I have enough to work with to make a successful presentation. This week, I got another post done, and I am currently working on my next post, along with starting to create my presentation. Next, I will work on more posts and finish my presentation.
