Okay, admit it: there’s just something fun about food that looks like other food. Whether it’s “french fries” made of shortbread with a side of strawberry jam “ketchup,” or meatloaf cupcakes with mashed-potato “frosting,” there is no more sophisticated way to play with your food.
If you’re keen on this idea, then you’re going to love this cookie idea from Laura at Come Together Kids. Yes, they look like perfect little hamburgers, but this edible craft is 100 percent sweetness. Delish!
What you’ll need:
• Vanilla wafers
• Keebler Grasshopper Cookies (or your family’s favourite chocolate-covered cookie)
• Coconut flakes
• Green food colouring
• Red and yellow squeezable icing
For complete directions, check out the full Hamburger Cookies recipe on Laura’s site. This is a great recipe for even the most junior chef in your family, as there is no baking, boiling or chopping required.
The finished product is so cute, you may not want to actually eat them. If that’s the case, give us a call—we’d be happy to help you out!
