Children love nothing better than cookies and cakes - whether they are baking
them or eating them! Valentine's Day is a great excuse to get your aprons on and
create something delicious, and we have some recipe suggestions below!
Cherry Cookies
NEW!
Bake these cherry cookies for Valentine's Day and garnish with a
heart-shaped piece of cherry on the top.
Valentine's Day Cookies
Make up your favourite iced cookie recipe (this
is ours) and then use pink writing icing to decorate.
Strawberry Muffins
The chunks of fresh strawberries in these muffins are absolutely delicious -
and they look so pretty too! They are obviously best in the summer
strawberry season, but we like to make them for Valentine's Day too.
Stained Glass Heart Cookies
Make a Valentine's Day version of
this Christmas recipe favourite, using red candies and two heart shaped
cookie cutters.
Valentine Puffs
These are very quick and easy - some would even say a bit of a cheat! But
kids love to make them and eat them.
Open Heart Sandwiches
Not really baking, but a fun treat for Valentine's Day and your Valentine
party, you can make some pretty heart shaped open sandwiches using a
spreading of butter and a sprinkle of hundreds and thousands or other cake
decorating sprinkles.
Olympic Recipes!NEW! Encourage kids to get involved with the Olympic Games by serving up
an Olympic treat or two!
Jumbles - a delicious, gingery biscuit which
kids will enjoy cooking (and eating!)
Easy Quesadillas
These are a firm family favourite in our house - and a very useful quick
meal to teach your teenagers to cook for themselves and their friends! Children
of all ages enjoy putting these together, and of course you can tailor them to
suit the likes and dislikes of the different members of the family.
