Surprised by Martha Stewart

So I'm a little behind on posting on our monthly challenges. It has been on my to do list, but it took a transformer blowing up at work to make me do this. I went into work today, everything was find and dandy and then right around 11:30am there was a loud boom that could be heard outside the office and then we lost power. Come to find out, a transformer on the power line blew up and so it left our office without electricity. We had to shut all the servers down and send the majority of people home, so I am sitting at home with a cup of milk, some snickerdoodles, and working on my to do list. Number one on the list: Do blog. Here we go. The first challenge we received was from Alicia and it was for some Pumpkin Whoopie pies. The recipe was from Martha Stewart and I was a little uncertain but they turned out great! Alicia suggested to put some chocolate chips in the dough for the cookies and it made them ten times better. The recipe made so many that I ended up taking the extras to work and the plate was cleared off within seconds. This is a recipe I will be saving to use when Fall rolls around again.
