Cinnamon Twists and Spiced Apple Cider...A Smash Hit!

Who could resist hot apple cider and melt in your mouth cinnamon twists on a cold, dreary winter day? Alright....I heartily admit that today's cinnamon and sugar laden dough treat wasn't the healthiest recipe we've made. However, it was just we needed to inject a little bit of excitement into an otherwise icky, cold mid-winter day in Chicago. Scents of cinnamon and cloves wafted through the room as the spiced cider simmered away while the twists baked into golden delights....

  1. Mo: Yes, cloves are wonderful, and we loved the smell as the students used the mortar and pestle to crush them during a previous recipe. We also want to thank you for teaching us how to make our own bird feeders out of oranges! Every week we have been going out to the garden to replenish the seed in the feeders. Amazingly, they are still hanging there, not yet knocked down by squirrels, which is what happened to the feeders I made at home. Luckily, my neighbor gave me a bird feeder she wasn't using, so thanks to you, I now have a new hobby!
