Friday Family Fun! ~ Holiday Baking Links

Gidget posted on December 12, 2008 16:31

With Christmas just around the corner, now's the perfect time to take your family to the kitchen and do some baking together! Here are some fun resources, links and recipes to get you going!

Popcorn Balls~ a how-to video!
Banana chocolate chip bread~ a family recipe from moi!
Vintage Mommy has a whole slew of recipes for food gifts!
Fruit Loop Rice Krispie Treats would be especially fun with kids!
An even more decadent rice-krispie-creation: Peanut Butter Fudge Treats!!
C&H Sugar has a fun guide to baking with kids

And I love About.com's rules for your "budding chef":

Get permission to use the kitchen.
Wash your hands with soap and water before starting your kitchen preparations. Continually wash hands as needed like touching the trash can or picking up items from the floor.
Re-read the recipe several times.
Make sure you have all of the necessary ingredients. Put them out on the counter.
Get out all of the equipment like pans and measuring cups.
Follow the recipe exactly.
Use oven mittens or pot holders when taking food in and out of the oven.
Clean as you go along.
Share your wonderful dessert creation with your friends and family.

Have fun and be sure to share your family baking recipes or tips in the comments!
