Sometimes my daughters just want to play around in the kitchen and bake. Using the oven just isn't always an option during these moments of inspiration in the kitchen.
Never fear, there is a no-bake cookie they can make!
This easy, no-bake recipe is awesome for kids to make independently. They feel very accomplished after they make these delicious little cookie balls.
