After yet another crazy crazy week of work and surprisingly another opportunity to go out and have fun, Sunday rolls around and I am tired and maybe a little grumpy when I realise that I haven’t had the camera out at all (I don’t even know where the point and shoot is hiding. I take a billion photos at soccer to make up for not having any pictures for the week but since they are photos of other peoples kids, I really don’t want to post them here without permission. What to do? Sure I could go back out and get some pics in the park, but it is cold and I am tired, perhaps even hungry. Time to get girl-child into action and make some cookies.
We used a great recipe from Nic at Planning with Kids – 100s of Biscuits.
What I love best is that the recipe calls for an entire tin of condensed milk – that means that I don’t eat the left over half tin of sweet goodness, instead I eat the cookie dough! I was so busy eating the mixture helping girl-child that I didn’t even grab my camera, just the trusty phone, to capture the fun.

(Some of) the Finished Product
We cooked dozens of biscuits and froze half the dough for emergencies! Hooray for a great recipe and for having a sweet treat for the kids lunch boxes for a change.
Head over to Unknown Mami and check out some of the adventures others have had during their Sundays in my City as I head back out in the cold to pick up the kids from the party!

Looks like you had a great time! Half the fun of baking cookies is eating the dough.

You say “biscuit” I say “cookie” but they are equally good by any name!
YUM – – – I LOVE cookie dough.

Cookie decorating is so much fun. I can remember birthday parties where we bake large sugar cookies and then bought icing and assorted toppings. The girls loved designing all their own cookies.

Seriously going to have to try this one out. Love the idea to freeze half the dough.
