Pencil Cookies

How cute are these pencil wafer cookies? They’re no-bake and only take a few steps, making them a fun dessert to make with kids too.
They’d also make an adorable kids party food for party themed after any book, school or an art party.
Ruler Rice Krispie Treats

These ruler rice krispie treats truly couldn’t be simpler. You can use homemade rice krispies treats but grabbing a box of store bought ones makes this recipe come together in a snap.
I like these treats because kids can play with them too, measuring out other things at the table or on their plate. It’s just the right level of novelty for my little kids.
Chocolate-Dipped Pretzel Apples

These apple pretzels shouldn’t be this easy for how good they look. They really pop on the plate and really are memorable as after school snacks for kids.
All you need for this recipe is pretzels, candy melts and something green for the leaves (green M&M’s work great here). I love a good no-bake recipe that still looks impressive.
