Focaccia Pizza

Focaccia is soooo fun to make esp with kids. I love getting my kids involved in cooking. The younger you get them cooking, the more love they have for it and want to do it. I started my son off at 4 years old.. today he LOVES to cook. I did not do the same with my daughter and she is really not into cooking. So, I decided any children we have going forward, their little butts will be cooking. Anytime my nieces or nephews are over, we cook together (bread, pizza, biscuits, whatever).  You Will Need: 4 Cups Bread Flour (King Arthur) 2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Sugar (honey or agava)  1.5 tsp Yeast 1 tbsp Oil (olive or avocado) 1 3/4 Cups Warm Water  Toppings: Rao Pizza Sauce Sausage Links, cooked and cut Applegate Pepperoni Green Bell Pepper Mushrooms Olives Onions, Sautéed  Pizza-part bake at 445 degrees 10-12 minutes

Vanilla Frosting

Tis the season... to make cookies and decorate them with your family!!! I absolutely love watching my kiddies make cookies and decorate them however they please! Of course, I only use homemade sugar cookie recipe- which is one of my top posts currently. Having family activities to do during the Holiday season makes the Holiday so much better, in my opinion. I love pulling all my cookie cutters out, and watching my kids, with the biggest smiles ever, make their favorite shaped cookies. Decorating can be a bit of a pain, and messy, but honestly it is their smiles that make it completely worth it.
 You Will Need:
2 Cups Powder Sugar
2 tbsp Butter
4-6 tbsp Milk
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
Natural Food Coloring
Sugar Cookies

Cream the butter, making sure it is nice and fluffy before continuing on
Add vanilla, and cream together some more
Sift in the powder sugar
Add 1 tbsp a time of the milk and mix in with a silicon spatula 
Once all the powder sugar is mixed in (I used 3 tbsp milk) and the consistency you want, mix really well until very fluffy with your kitchenaid mixer or hand mixer. Add in your natural food coloring (we do not use any other food coloring but what is posted above on our food)
