Merciful God, You are great in compassion and Your tenderness for us is without measure. We ask You to give us today our daily bread, and also provide for the needs of all of Your hungry children around the world. Through Christ Your Son and Our Lord. Amen.

Rosary Cake




It's been a few weeks since we enjoyed this delicious edible rosary, but you know that the entire month of October is dedicated to the rosary, so you still have a whole week to celebrate. I kept this year's rosary super simple -- with just two boxed brownie mixes baked in a large sheet pan (13 x 18). You could make a wonderful homemade Texas sheet cake, or this yummy Mexican sheet cake, or even a batch of Sugar Cookie Bars, or you can keep it simple and buy two boxes of brownie mix (the 13 x 9 size).

I made some homemade buttercream frosting (because I wanted the "beads" to pop), but you could use chocolate frosting as well. The Aves are just M&Ms and the Paters are Junior Mints. I "welded" two twix bars together (one cut in half) with some melted milk chocolate.

I didn't plan my rosary very well -- actually I didn't plan it all -- and that's why it looks a little crazy, but my kids are not perfectionists, so they didn't mind a bit.
