Peppermint Kid Candies. Easy as play dough!
Kid Made Candy Recipe that's as easy as Play Dough!
Do you need a gift your kids can make all by themselves?  Try these blue-ribbon winning peppermints (Seriously! My 7 year old daughter made them for the fair and won a ribbon)!

They make great Teacher Gifts, Valentines, Easter, Christmas, and more. Just choose your cookie cutter to match and go!

Need a Kid Made Gift? Try this Candy Recipe that's actually FUN to make!
  1. Mix the egg white with 3 cups of powdered sugar. Start with a wooden spoon and switch to your hands. Add sugar as needed (you are going for a play dough texture).
  2. Work in 1/2 to 1 capfull of peppermint extract.
  3. Add in a few drops of food coloring.
  4. Spread more sugar on your work surface. Roll out the candy mix and use your cookie cutter to make tiny shapes. Set them on a tray or sheet of parchment paper to dry for a few hours. (If the egg makes you nervous, you can put them in an oven or dehydrator on low for 15 to 30 minutes).
  5. (Totally optional but totally fun) Melt chocolate according to package. We like to use a tiny crock pot because the kids can do it themselves. Dip the candies and set on tray to dry.

Just recently I've been accepted as a play school teacher assistant. My mentor asked me if I could think of activities and recipes that we can do with the kids. Our school just converted one of the labs into a homeroom kitchen where kids can learn to cook, bake, etc. This will definitely be the first recipe that I will teach my bunnies (what I fondly called my students). We will sure have fun doing this and eating it after! :)
