Kindergarten Bakers

We had a yummy day yesterday in Room 110.  We made pumpkin spice cakes in the morning, and we enjoyed tasting them in the afternoon.  We all worked together to make the cakes, and it was very clear that we have some excellent bakers in our class.  The cakes were very tasty, and everyone enjoyed them.  Well done everyone!

Many children worked on writing their own copy of the recipe, and we promised that we would post the recipe here as well.

Here is the recipe:
