Building Budding Bakers

If you’ve yet to share the kitchen with your kids, our Peanut Butter Ripple Brownies are a tasty and kid-friendly recipe that’s perfect for first-timers:

Trusting your kids with important tasks is a sure-fire way to inspire kitchen involvement. Sure, your kitchen might get a little messy when you let them measure the dry ingredients, but this is the perfect task to instil confidence and accomplishment in your little helpers.

Let them crack the eggs, mix the batter and perhaps most importantly, lick the spoon! These kid-friendly steps are not only simple, but great for building their coordination and techniques that will be useful for years to come.

The best part of all? Eating your creation. We suggest making an exception and letting your kids have dessert before their dinner this weekend – just this once! After you’ve mastered these nutty brownies, try our Cinnamon Toffee Pecan Cookies or Gingerbread Friends – perfect for little hands and making more sweet memories.
