We rarely eat such food but I thought I'd buy in some provisions and make something like brownies or caramel slice; cooking from scratch...just like I used to do. But I've got to a stage in my life where I don't hesitate to 'cut corners' on the odd occasion...especially if it gives me more time for crafting! Lol.
With this in mind, I bought a Betty Crocker Brownies mix, some tiny vanilla slices from the freezer at Coles and visited Aldi and checked out their 'sweet stuff'. I also bought some coconut and a tin of condensed milk. With the latter I made a big batch of rum balls from some packets of sweet biscuits that had been languishing in the pantry.
And I also found this tin of cream wafers ( chocolate) and they were put in the food processor too with the other biscuits...
So technically I only made the brownies ( albeit from a packet) and the rum balls...the rest I only opened packets...
And this was the 'finished product' all ready to take to the party...
