Another of my favorite recipes for kids at Thanksgiving is the Thanksgiving Blessing Mix by OrganizedChristmas.com
This makes a great classroom activity and looks cute bagged as a gift with a tag telling what the foods represent…
THANKSGIVING BLESSINGS MIX
- Bugles- cornucopia/horn of plenty- a symbol of abundance
- Pumpkin Seeds (pepitas)- symbol of future harvests
- Dried fruits- cranberries and raisins- harvest gifts enjoyed from the land
- Candy Corn- symbol of settlers’ survival on just a few kernels of corn each day when food was scarce
- M&M’s- memories of those before us
- Pretzels- symbol of arms folded in prayer- which was a freedom sought by the founders of our country
- Hershey’s Kiss- one per person- symbol of love and sweetness of family and friends
This last recipe is one that I made with my children and they loved it so much that I wanted to share…
The ingredients are simple-
- Pepperidge Farm Milano Cookies
- Jumbo Marshmallows (cut horizontally with kitchen scissors to make turkey feathers)
- Melting Chocolates, Sprinkles, Butterscotch Chips, Orange Edible Ink Pen for feet
To make the Turkey Cookies-
- Melt 3/4 cup melting chocolates and dip marshmallow “feathers” in melted chocolate.
- Attach to back of Milano cookie right away. Shake on sprinkles. Place on wax paper to dry.
- Add butterscotch chips for eyes using a dab of icing. Draw beak by dipping toothpick in melted chocolate and using toothpick as a pencil. Draw feet with orange edible writing pen.
So easy! Enjoy!
