Baking with children is a great experience – you get
the chance to spend time together and share special
moments that will be treasured forever.
So whether you’re cooking for a party or just a family
get-together, let your children help you cook. Allow them
to measure the ingredients, and lick the beaters (just like
you used to do), or put them in charge of mixing.
Here are a few easy
recipes from JELL-O and
Baker’s to get you going.
Jell-O Cookies HEAT oven to 400°F.
MIX flour, baking powder and salt. Beat
butter in large bowl with mixer until creamy.
Add ½ cup sugar and dry gelatin mix; beat
until light and fluffy. Blend in eggs and
vanilla. Gradually beat in flour mixture until
blended.
SHAPE dough into 1-inch balls; roll in
remaining sugar until evenly coated. Place,
2 inches apart, on baking sheets. Flatten
with bottom of glass.
BAKE 6 to 8 min. or until edges are lightly
browned. Cool on baking sheets 3 min.
Remove to wire racks; cool completely.
Baker’s One Bowl
Macaroons HEAT oven to 325°F.
COMBINE coconut, sugar, flour and salt
in large bowl. Stir in egg whites and extract
until blended.
DROP coconut mixture into 36 mounds,
2 inches apart, onto greased and lightly
floured baking sheets, using about 1 Tbsp.
coconut mixture for each.
BAKE 20 min. or until edges are golden
brown. Immediately remove from baking
sheets to wire racks; cool completely.
