<strong>1.</strong> In a small bowl, whisk together cocoa and boiling water until smooth and bring to room temperature.<br />
<strong>2.</strong> In a small bowl, combine liquid ingredients: eggs, vanilla and sour cream. Whisk until lightly combined.<br />
<strong>3.</strong> In mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, salt and brown sugar. Beat on low for 30 seconds.<br />
<strong>4.</strong> Add butter. Mix on low until all the dry ingredients are moistened. Scrape down sides.<br />
<strong>5.</strong> Add egg mixture, in three additions. Beat 30 seconds after each addition.<br />
<strong>6.</strong> With mixer on low speed, add chocolate mixture. Mix on medium for 1 minute to allow batter to aerate and ingredients to combine. Scrape down sides.<br />
<strong>7.</strong> Pour into cake pans, and bake for 35-45 minutes or until cake test comes out clean when inserted into center of the cake<br />
<strong>8.</strong> Let the cake layers cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then turn out onto a wired rack and remove the paper liners. Cool completely.</div><div style="color: #8b643f; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 14px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><strong>Buttercream</strong><br />
<strong>1.</strong> Melt 1/2 cup of cream with white chocolate in the microwave or using a double boiler.<br />
<strong>2.</strong> In a chilled bowl with chilled beaters beat the remaining 2 cups of heavy cream and vanilla until softly whipped.<br />
<strong>3.</strong> Stir in cooled white chocolate cream and beat until stiff peaks form with beater is raise. Do not over beat, which would cause the ganache to separate.<br />

Fold candy canes in with the remaining ganache.</div><div style="color: #8b643f; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 14px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><strong>Assembly</strong><br />

It was holiday season and the park's Christmas parade was rounding the corner. The group of us was caught up in a hectic frenzy of finding good seats and marking our viewing territory with bags, purses, and jackets within the chaotic crowd of eager parade watchers. For a split second within the whirlwind of chaos, I glanced over my shoulder and watched a total stranger reach out and shake the hand of a Vietnam war veteran who is now in his 80s. His blue eyes flickered within a blanket of tears as he sat silenced under his war veteran ball cap reflecting the stranger's gratitude. Flashing lights, parade music, and crowds laughing and devouring powdered-sugar drenched funnel cakes circled around the seated man, but the immense jolt of simple gratitude from a stranger left him quiet and propelled into a storm of memories and deep thoughtfulness. </span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #555555; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">I couldn't imagine what pain and horrific images those twinkling blue eyes of Stan Potoshnik had seen so many years ago, but one thing is for certain, I will never forget the memory of that day and my own heart-felt gratitude for him and the long list of heroes that have given their lives for me and my loved ones. To </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #555555; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">Chris Junkerman's grandfather, Mr. Potoshnik, who served in the U.S. Air Force, to </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #555555; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">my own grandfather, Rex Ayers, who served in the U.S. Army, to Jeremy Galloway who is a freshly graduated Marine, and to all the men and women from the past to the future who have or will serve in the US Armed Forces, we say, "thank you". </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Simple, yes, but Natalie + Chris' real wedding is layered with sweet, delicious, approachable <strong>charm</strong> that would make <em>any</em> would-be bride jump up and squeal! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wait, snowflakes in June? It's true! Last winter, we had the great pleasure of designing an ultra fabulous Winter Wonderland Wedding for our dear friends and clients, Stacey and Brandon Feagans. In case you missed it, we posted some delicious photo highlights a few weeks following the December wedding, courtesy of Stacey and Brandon's fab wedding photographers, Benfield Photography. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What's this have to do with June snowflakes? With the newly published 2011 Fall/Winter issue of Arkansas Bride featuring this magical wedding, we've decided to celebrate with an INSIDE PEAK of the event with the creative vendors that made it happen and never before seen images that our talented friends Aus10 PhotoArtists took exclusively for our records and portfolio before Stacey and Brandon's guests arrived! Why not share, right? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But first, here's a special sneak peak of the Arkansas Bride wedding feature with a few lovely photos of the wedding day taken by the talented Benfield Photography. Go pick up your copy today! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>the CAKE</strong> {Eating freshly fallen snow has never sounded so good. Stacey and Brandon's cake was to die for. TO. DIE. FOR. The cake, designed by Main Sweets Bakery in Noel, Missouri, could have sat in an empty room, and it would have looked equally as beautiful. Their work making the fondant look like real snow was impeccable! The top and bottom tiers were wrapped in a satin ribbon with the perfect brooch. JJ WED framed this masterpiece of a cake with billowing fabric draping and a backdrop of crystal beading. A custom designed icy chandelier hung above the cake with flickering candlelight to set the romantic mood. The cake sat atop a satin "rosette" table linen with dozens of roses and hydrangeas encircling the base...and yes, tiny Swarovski crystals lit up the floral bed like ice on a snowy landscape. Pure winter heaven.} </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gone are the days when 18th Century Frenchmen adorned fancy frocks with bold blooms and 20th Century silver screen gents, like Cary Grant and Clark Gable, pinned a modest boutonniere on their coat just to enjoy a Friday night out on the town.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When it comes to boutonnieres nowadays, the fellas reserve them mainly for special events, such as weddings. And even then, most guys could care less what design they sport down the aisle as long as it stays simple and doesn't require a weed-wacker to kiss the bride.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">{JJ WED} completely agrees, however, the often neglected (and often misspelled) boutonniere has come a long way since the simplistic carnation or rose head of days gone by. Today, we (floral and event designers) encourage grooms to exercise a little creativity to spice up that oh-so-plain black lapel. </span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Simply put: stylish doesn't have to mean "over-done".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Take a look at some of these dapper designs that add a stylish statement to the ol' lapel, while still keeping true to the crisp, clean look of today's modern groom.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Rain. It seems like it's never ending as it pours across the south and midwest! On a positive note, we'll have plenty to blog about as these April showers (monsoons) can only promise May flowers (bushels of blooms, at this rate)! Ok, ok....sarcasm has been noted and quickly forgotten. To put a little ray of sunshine in the gloomy clouds above, we thought we'd share some of our favorite "caught in the rain" wedding photos that are <em>dripping</em> with romance and <em>flooded</em> with charm all thanks to glorious rain! Enjoy!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;">Hello Spring! And, hello readers!</span></strong> We hope you'll forgive us for not updating our blog since March! <em>Ouch!</em> But, just as Mother Nature tends to her fragrant blooms, butterflies and bees, we at <span style="color: orange;">{JJ WED}</span> have been busy bees and social butterflies in the design scene with our fresh and beautiful blooms for brides and clients near and far! Not only that, but we've done some Spring cleaning around the blog, too, in case you've noticed any changes! :)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today's blog is in honor of Mother Nature and the beautiful blooms she so graciously brings to us each year.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here's a peak at some of our favorite blooming bouquets from some super Spring-inspired weddings from our vendor friends from around the country. Enjoy!</span><br />

Incorporating playful elements like clover and shades of earthy greens, this wedding & event concept will ensure that your Irish eyes are smilin'. Happy St. Patrick's Day! </span><br />

Well, don't get your crawfish in a tangle, you can still celebrate with some sweet (fried) delights reminiscent of old French Quarter flavor. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Being lovers of delicious foods, our favorite thing about visiting New Orleans is absolutely the food! <a href="http://cafedumonde.com/">Cafe du Monde</a> (famous for their beignets, a square piece of dough, fried and covered with powdered sugar) is a morning must stop for any traveler...or dare I say...."tourist". The strong aroma of fresh steaming cafe au lait matched with a plate full of powdered sugar drenched beignets just starts the day off right! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Ingredients</strong></span><br />
<ul><li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 1/2 cups lukewarm water </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1/2 cup granulated sugar </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 envelope active dry yeast </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 eggs, slightly beaten </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 1/4 teaspoons salt </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 cup evaporated milk </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">7 cups bread flour </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1/4 cup shortening </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nonstick spray </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Oil, for deep-frying </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3 cups confectioners' sugar </span></li>
</ul><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Directions</strong></span></div><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mix water, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl and let sit for 10 minutes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In another bowl, beat the eggs, salt and evaporated milk together. Mix egg mixture to the yeast mixture. In a separate bowl, measure out the bread flour. Add 3 cups of the flour to the yeast mixture and stir to combine. Add the shortening and continue to stir while adding the remaining flour. Remove dough from the bowl, place onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Spray a large bowl with nonstick spray. Put dough into the bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a towel. Let rise in a warm place for at least 2 hours.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Preheat oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Add the confectioners' sugar to a paper or plastic bag and set aside.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Roll the dough out to about 1/4-inch thickness and cut into 1-inch squares. Deep-fry, flipping constantly, until they become a golden color. After beignets are fried, drain them for a few seconds on paper towels, and then toss them into the bag of confectioners' sugar. Hold bag closed and shake to coat evenly.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong>ENJOY!</strong></span><br />

The very phrase, alone, is so romantically swoon-worthy it's pathetic. *sigh* There are so many different ways in which we celebrate. Some of us dive head first into the dreamy, cotton-like clouds of heart-shaped chocolates and warm and fuzzy, glitter-coated cardstock. Others, however, may roll their eyes in painful disgust with each dreadful sighting of a foil-wrapped, chocolate rose or naked cupid figurine.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Whether you're that hopeless, starry-eyed romantic or the strong, independent single, Junkerman Jones has THREE fun party concepts that one and all can enjoy. Most importantly, however, each of them contain TWO main ingredients: CUPCAKES AND COCKTAILS!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">We met up with our talented pal, Lacey Carney, at <a href="http://www.blisscupcakecafe.com/">BLISS CUPCAKE CAFE</a> on the Fayetteville, AR square in search of the three most delicious, most Valentine-esque cupcakes her team had on the menu. What's more? Junkerman Jones will be giving away a 1/2 dozen of these heavenly treats to one lucky blog reader! {Read on to learn more...}.</span><br />

Tailgating and gaming events give us a terrific excuse for indulging in hearty, good-for-the-soul foods, so make sure your guests have a few choices. We've selected some of our favorite gametime eats; you have the option of cooking up an entire menu from buffalo wings to baked mini corndogs (which guests will love you for), or simply choosing a dip or two for gametime munching followed by one main course, such as grilled burgers and potato salad.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Get the delicious recipes: <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/southwestern-nachos-potato-skins-recipe/index.html">Southwestern Nacho Potato Skins</a>, <a href="http://www.rachaelraymag.com/Recipes/rachael-ray-magazine-recipe-index/appetizer-starter-recipes/Sweet---Salty-Kettle-Corn">Sweet and Salty Kettle Corn</a>, <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/swedish-meatballs-recipe/index.html">Swedish Meatballs</a>, <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/guacamole-recipe/index.html">Guacamole</a>, <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/baked-mini-corn-dogs-recipe/index.html">Baked Mini Corndogs</a>, <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/potato-salad-recipe/index.html">Potato Salad</a>, <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/manchego-stuffed-pork-burgers-recipe/index.html">Manchego Stuffed Pork Burgers</a>, <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/alton-browns-buffalo-wings-recipe/index.html">Buffalo Wings</a>, <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/bean-and-beef-chili-recipe/index.html">Bean and Beef Chili</a>.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

It allows your guests to get creative with their gametime food options, however, it is a low maintenance approach that will ensure that your time is spent watching the game and not standing in the kitchen. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">{Thanks <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/hot-dog-calendar/package/index.html">Food Network</a> for these and more delicious "dog" <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/hot-dog-calendar/package/index.html">recipes</a>!}</span> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">CHILI BUFFET:</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For an even simpler approach with low maintenance, whip up a big pot of chili with a host of toppings including sour cream, a variety of cheeses, chives, avocado, tortilla chips, and crusty bread. If time allows, make your chili a day or two in advance and consider making a couple options to give guests variety, such as a bean & beef and a chicken and/or vegetarian chili.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

Don't leave anyone out: ensure that there are plenty of options that will quench the thirsts of adults and kids alike!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Fill a large galvanized bucket with colorful flavored <a href="http://www.jonessoda.com/">Jones Sodas</a> in your favorite teams colors, and throw in a few long neck colas and root beers, too!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">For the "guys", provide a simple range of Buds (such as Anheuser-Busch's Budweiser or Budvar Budweiser), wheat beers (such as Pyramid's Hefe Weizen), and pale ales (such as Anchor and Flying Dog) which tend to have a bit more flavor and go great with a wide variety of Superbowl foods. Provide <a href="http://www.potterybarn.com/products/bella-beer-mugs/?pkey=e%7Cbeer%7C6%7Cbest%7C0%7C1%7C24%7C%7C2&cm_src=PRODUCTSEARCH%7C%7CNoFacet-_-NoFacet-_-NoMerchRules-_-">frosted mugs</a> for a personalized touch.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

Once the testosterone levels begin rising with the thrill of the game, no one will care about the carefully arranged roses sitting on the kitchen table. Allow the food presentation, careful stacking of dishes and glassware, and galvanized drink tubs to become part of the decor. Pick up flats of wheatgrass from your local home and garden store and place them in galvanized tins for a simple, yet handsome look. Take it a step further by placing miniature plastic football players and goalposts (available at <a href="http://kaskeykids.com/">Kaskey Kids</a>) within the wheatgrass for a fun, light-hearted centerpiece any guest will appreciate!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Another idea: go to your local home store and pick up a piece of AstroTurf (real or faux), using tape or paint and adhesive numbers, create yardlines on a miniature football field that can act as a playful runner for your buffet or drink station. Can't resist the sweet smell of flowers? Go ahead and throw together a simple cluster of yellow roses in a low cylinder vase. Fresh flowers just say "welcome to my home", even the guy with the foam finger will appreciate that.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ingredients:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">8 cups snow</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1/2 cup white sugar </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 cup milk </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Directions:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Suit up in snow armor (i.e. snow hats, mittens, scarves, galoshes).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Collect a large bowl of fresh, white undisturbed snow, around 8-10 cups. (Skim only the top layer of snow, avoid direct contact with the surface it is covering). </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once you're back inside and de-galoshed: <br />
Stir in sugar and vanilla to taste, then stir in just enough milk for the desired consistency. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When completely mixed, the volume will have decreased considerably. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Spoon additional snow (5-7 cups) on top of the milk/snow mixture, filling the bowl to the top. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Enjoy now or cover bowl with plastic wrap and store in freezer for later use.</span><br />

Time quickly passed as you snipped and chopped away at crisp, bright paper with your colorful, plastic scissors...(tongue hanging out for added concentration). You'd slice and dice papery shapes, adding them to the pile of foil stickers, giant canisters of red glitter, and fun decorative elements that stood waiting to be used. Peeling off the hardened, dried-glue cap of your Elmer's bottle, you'd slather the cardstock with the gooey slime, and like a crazed artist, you'd rush against the clock to piece and adhere the elements together with hopes of a masterpiece. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As the glitter storm and paper confetti settled to the floor, there through the hazy, fluorescent lighting was the most spectacular, handcrafted Valentine ANYONE this side of 1st period had EVER seen.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Whether that shimmering card read "be mine" and was hand delivered to Sally, Bobby, or the cheery classroom teacher, or spelled out "I love you" and was brought home to make momma smile in exchange for freshly baked Valentine's Day Cookies, the design was created from the heart.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>These days</em>, most of us could only dream of having the time to craft such colorful, layered creations as busy adults. Luckily, however, there are many creative folks that take the busy work out of these homemade cards for you and I to purchase. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This year, if time doesn't allow for handcrafting your own personal creation, forget the generic supermarket card and opt for getting your sweetheart one of these fun, and very special creations!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">{Makes 24}</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ingredients</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 1/2 cup cocoa powder</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 1/4 teaspoon salt</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temp</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 1 1/2 cups sugar</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 2 large eggs</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 1 tablespoon milk</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">· 2 to 2 1/2 pints strawberry ice cream, slightly softened</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, vanilla, and sugar. Add eggs and milk, and mix until combined. Add reserved flour mixture, and mix on low speed until incorporated, scraping the sides of the bowl with a spatula at least once. Divide the dough in half, and shape each half into a flat disk. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap, and chill until firm, about 1 hour.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface; use an offset spatula to unstick the dough every few turns of the rolling pin. Roll dough to an 1/8-inch thickness. Cut dough using a variety of heart-shaped cookie cutters from 2 1/2 to 3 inches in diameter, making sure there is a top and bottom cookie for each sandwich. Place hearts on a parchment-lined baking sheet; chill until firm, about 30 minutes. Remove from refrigerator; use a fork to prick holes all over the surface of the cookies. Bake until firm, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly on baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.</span><br />

Using half the cookies, spoon softened strawberry ice cream about 1/2 inch thick on each underside. Place matching cookie on top of ice cream, top-side facing out. Transfer immediately to freezer to harden; repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve directly from the freezer. Sandwiches can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for 3 to 4 days.</span><br />

Stacey and Brandon were an absolute hoot to work with, and we are excited to reveal all the wintry design details within the next few days that were captured before guests even arrived by our creative friends Matt + Meghan at </span><a href="http://www.aus10.com/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Aus10 Photography</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> {more on them later}; we'll also highlight the wonderful vendors involved in making Stacey and Brandon's day so very special! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Meanwhile, here is a special sneak peak pulled directly from Stacey & Brandon's fabulous wedding day photogs, </span><a href="http://benfieldphotography.blogspot.com/2010/12/pratt-place-wedding-reception-details.html"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Benfield Photography</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> {what a TALENTED bunch, eh??} :</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Each year, Benfield sorts through thousands and thousand of images, selects special nominations that are then narrowed down by crowd favorite, and finally, the team throws the much anticipated Benny Awards all in an effort to highlight some of their past year's most celebrated and talked about moments in weddings. How fun! Make sure and check out the </span><a href="http://www.benfieldphotography.net/2011Bennys/bennyhome.html"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Benny Awards</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, and if you feel so inclined....vote, vote, vote for Stacey & Brandon {they were nominated for best bride's cake and wedding design}. Exciting stuff!!</span><br />
