Could I get help translating a birth record taken from the Askim church records in 1776?

My records show her full name as Sissel Fransdatter Skjolden, born in Sør-Skjolden, Askim, Østfold, Norway. I have her father's name as Frans Olsen Skjolden and mother as Tore Ingemundsdatter. Does this match with her birth record?

I also need her birth date. Please translate all the text and names. The record is on the right side, 7th person down.

The baptism was Dom 4 Advent = Dec 22 in 1776.
The record reads "Frans og Thore Store Mørktveds Datter kaldet Sissel, Faddere Dorthe Erringen, Sissel og Frans Store Ruud, Povel Søndre Schiolden og Hans Store Mørktved".

Frans Olsen and Tore Ingemundsdatter married in Trøgstad Oct 21 1771 and had a son Christian baptized Mar 11 1792 in Askim.

This is hard for me to interpret - could you help me?

"Frans og Thore Store Mørktveds Datter kaldet Sissel, Faddere Dorthe Erringen, Sissel og Frans Store Ruud, Povel Søndre Schiolden og Hans Store Mørktved".

Frans and Thore are the parents
Store Mørktveds - what is this? farm?
Datter - means daughter
kaldet - what is this?
faddere - mentor, sponsor, witness
Store Ruud - name of farm?
Søndre Schiolden - name of farm?
Store Mørktved - name of farm?
