It's National Something On A Stick Day!

It really is Something on a Stick Day! Here is what I found about this funny day:

Something on a Stick Day celebrates things on a stick. Isn't this just a neat day?  We thought you'd agree.

So what comes on a stick? Practically anything. The first thing that comes to mind is popsicles and fudgecicles. Hotdogs are poplar on a stick at campfires. There's also corndogs, and shrimp and many chinese treats. Cocktail wieners and cheese are picked and eaten on a stick(a toothpick).

You can also get just about anything on a stick when receiving food samples at a store or festival.Celebrate this fun day by serving food for meals and snacks on a stick. The kids will love it. So will you!

Isn't that great?? Well I didn't make anything specially for this day but I will post this recipe of cupcake pops I made for my moms birthday a few month ago. (love you mommy)

This recipe belongs to Bakerella, and she wrote such simple instructions that I won't even bother re-writing them but I will post the chocolate cake recipe I used for the Pops.

And here is the chocolate cake I used:

Simple Chocolate Cake:

2 1\2 cups flour

2 cups sugar

6 Tbsp dark cocoa

1 Tbsp baking powder

1 tsp bakind soda

1 1\4 cups water

4 eggs

1 cup oil

In a bowl whisk together all the dry ingredients, then add the wet (egg, oil, water) mix until combined.

Pour mixture in a baking pan (it doesn't matter what size pan you use 'cause the cake is anyway going to get crumbled into pieces)

bake for 30 min in a 180* oven.

after that follow the step by step intructions from Bakerella.

I had some leftovers from the cupcake pop mix so I just made some pralines out of them.

Happy something on a stick day!
