Earth Day Goodies!

Stephanie Lynn @ Under the Table and Dreaming did SUCH a cute post with some great ideas for snacks/treats for the kiddies for tomorrow (Earth Day)  It just happens to be Ramsey's day for snacks at preschool so I thought I would try to whip some up.. Mine are not nearly as good lookin' as hers.. head over there to see her goodies!

I did mini muffins so I couldn't use the same process she did. First I made the batter (lemon blueberry this time) seperated it about 2/3 and 1/3, 2/3 blue and 1/3 green.. with my batter colors ready I used 1/2 Tablespoon measuring spoon to put a dallop of blue in each mini pan, then I filled a plastic disposable pastry bag with the green, no tip required!  I made a weird little design on each of the blue and then "filled" the mini muffins up with the green, just stuck the pastry bag below the surface and squeezed until they were all about the same size.. so the insides will be mostly green, the outsides mostly blue. Baked according to directions!  ooh and I didn't add any blueberries to the green, only the blue batter.


Happy Earth Day tomorrow!!
