Spending time cooking with my kids is a win/win.   They not only learn about basics in cooking and baking but they have to use math, reading and more.  Drew and I recently made this treat for after school and they turned out delicious! Oh so melty, gooey and full of candy goodness.

You could make these treats with a variety of add-ins.  So if you don’t like Rolos… no big deal, just switch them out for something else.

If you love Oreos, crush them up and add them instead.  Another easy, peasy recipe to add to your list!
