Doll Apple Braid

Last night I took the pictures....so I decided to post it today after I was busy....now I'm quite bored.
Please don't use the pictures without my permission, and be sure to give me full credit for them...if I see them anywhere else I will be forced to watermark.
What you need:
Gold Clay
Green Clay
Doll Knife
Doll Rolling Pin
(I used Play*Dough, and I used the wrong colors because I didn't have the right ones. :P)













I put this cutting plastic on the desk to protect from Play*Dough.


How to make it:
1. Roll the green ''clay'' into balls. Set aside.






2. Roll out the gold ''clay'' with the rolling pin into a rectangle.
(I used a marker because I couldn't find my rolling pin for 'dolls'.)



3. Cut the dough with the knife (I used a paper cutter, again I couldn't find what I needed!!), about 1/3" thick through 1/3 of the dough. 
4. Follow step 3 with the other side.
5. Place some green clay balls on the center 1/3 of the gold dough....ech hem clay. The leftover balls put back into the container.
6. Fold one over, then fold one of the other side over, and so on.

I suppose if you use clay you could bake it, but I am using Play*Dough so I wouldn't know. :P

Here is the finished product.



Recipe!!! (Yes, and Doll Recipe soon!)

So...it's been awhile...anyway I don't see a new theme. I would like to thank Dally for taking over for a bit from Courtney. ~~ Also I would like to NOT thank this thing popping up saying 'You have logged out from another location...'blah blah. If I've logged out why am I logged in here and live? Sure I'll log in again. Now that I got that over with....~~ I am glad to be not so busy. But while I'm here, I'll share this recipe I found on the internet.

From my personal experience, it is DELICIOUS! No it has nothing to do with American Girl, but I am way too bored, and I made three of it today. http://www.eatliverun.com/apple-braid/ Here is where I got the recipe, but because I didn't get whipping cream I just used whipped cream (I know it isn't the same,  maybe it isn't even similar, but it worked so..) and sprayed a bunch into the glaze mixture. It came out pretty well. I also didn't peel them. I started doing it but the peeler wasn't working correctly and I was too lazy to do it my hand.

But for the American Girl Part.....I am going to make a 'apple braid' for American Girl made out of ice cream....I mean clay...I was thinking about ice cream sorry....for Kit! As soon as I make it (I'll try doing it Wednesday, because tomorrow I am busy) I will post pictures...and hopefully instructions too. Yeah I just thought of making this when I got on Blogger. :P I never even thought about it when I was baking.

Did I mention I like cooking/baking/anything in the kitchen? Well I do....anyway....Overall, each one took about 45-50 minutes (I mean in real life not the doll ones), but I would be making the filling while cooking the braid and so on....so it only took about 2 hours including set up, which I might add took up a whole lot of time to find space because our kitchen is....well....not clean. My mom says we have to clean it up soon......
