Last week I went on two baking adventures! The first one was from this holiday magazine.

I really like using magazines for recipes because I like to compare what the picture they advertise is to what I create.

I decided to try this no-bake recipe for a change.

However, we did not have a food processor and had to smash these pretzels by hand.

We also used chunky peanut butter! I found this to make the recipe better.

We heated up chocolate chips to melt on top.

Sometimes, baking can really make your day. This was one of the times banking cheered me up and made me forget about the stress of schoolwork. It is important to make time for the things you love. Although this recipe was really easy, it helped me relax! As you can see in this photo I am happy that I did it!
