Kitchen Fun and Crafty Friday Link Party #1 (with Puppy Love S'more Pops)!

We are so excited to be hosting our first link party! For those of you that are not familiar with link parties...this is the BEST way to get your creations out there for people to see them. I LOVE link parties and try to link up our goodies to as many as I can. We wanted to join in on the fun and have our own. We love seeing all of the creative talent out there and would be thrilled for you to link up to our party! Feel free to share with all of your blogging buddies!

We will be featuring our favorites the following week. Since this is our first party we have nothing to feature...so we are sharing these Puppy Love S'more Pops that we made last week. We know that there are a lot of you that are visiting us for the first time for the party and wanted to give you a look at the kind of things we make. We also make lots of fun dinners, snacks, lunches mostly for kids. We also will share recipes and some crafty things from time to time. Take a look around!

On to the Puppy S'more Pops...

We made these fun puppies using Graham Crackers, Pink Marshmallows, Chocolate Cookie Frosting, Candy Hearts, Mini Marshmallows, Mini Chocolate Chips, Red Cookie Frosting, and Lollipop Sticks.

We started out by cutting the graham crackers with a heart cookie cutter. We didn't break any...it will work great! We cut out 1 ear with kitchen scissors (another good thing to use) and used that as a guide to cut out the others. You could use a knife and that will work fine! Cut out a little tongue from scraps as well. Set your pieces down and pull out the frosting and marshmallows. The pieces will look like this...

We flipped our heart cut outs over and squeezed some chocolate cookie frosting on them. Cut the pink marshmallows in half and place on the frosting. Cut one of the marshmallow halves into a triangle to fit. It will look like this...

Place the lollipop stick in the middle of the marshmallows and into the triangle marshmallow. Squeeze a little frosting around it to secure. Squeeze frosting on the other heart and place on the top.

Now for the face and ears. We decided to make spots on the ears. You could just leave them as well. Cut 1 mini marshmallow in half for the eyes. Use the mini chocolate chips for the pupils. Make the mouth and attach the heart candy nose with cookie frosting. We squeezed red cookie frosting on the tongue cut out and pressed that on underneath. Attach the ears on with frosting and let everything dry. This really is easy to do and we loved how they turned out!
