Focaccia

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  Bake at 445 degrees 10-12 minutes

No Bake Cookies

These are my favorite no bake cookies, they are super simple and taste like a buckeye candy. If you have never buckeye candies, you can find that recipe here. Take these two recipes together and place them out on your table during the Ohio State Buckeye football games and they are surely to be a crowd pleaser. As Christmas rounds the corner be sure you put these bad boys out for Santa!! The kids will love making these with you for that good ol' Saint Nick!

You Will Need:
1/2 Cup Peanut Butter
2 tsp Vanilla
1/2 Cup Milk
1/2 Cup Butter
2 Cup Sugar 
4 tbsp Cacao Powder
4 Cups Quick Cooking Oats
Place the butter, sugar, milk, and cacao powder on the stove 
Heat on medium high to a roiling boil, and boil for 1 minute
Whisking often
Whisk in butter, and vanilla
Stir in oats
Drop pieces onto parchment paper, and let cool.
