Adams work is having a chili cook-off in honor of Halloween, I made a giant pot of chili and hope to win the cook-off which would result in me getting a dutch oven. So I figured I should make a yummy dessert to whoo the judges.
I found this recipe when searching for something to make for my work, it looked very yummy, and very simple. Sadly I didn’t get a piece but the batter tasted amazing. Adam said it tasted as good as it looked, I am going to make this again so I can taste it myself.

You have to let us know how the chili turned out!
I love “turtle” anything, so this is right up my alley. And so easy to make!
This looks and sounds fabulous! The classic “turtle” flavors are so good.
