Treat Time :
|
Let children cut into animal shapes with cookie cutters* (be sure to make two of each animal).
Place cookies 1 inch apart onto un-greased cookie sheets. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, until edges are lightly browned. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
Alternative: This is a really simple and fun recipe, but if you’re short on time purchase store bought animal crackers and have children search for pairs of animals. |
* Animal shaped cookie cutters can be found at many craft stores.
