What could be better than peanut butter and chocolate? Not much! Make these delicious Peanut Butter Blossoms and pour a glass of milk. Enjoy!
MY LATEST VIDEOSIt’s no secret that cooking with kids (and baking too!) is important to me. We’ve been spending time in the kitchen together for years. My youngest son, Drew, especially loves to bake with me. And he really loves making cookies. These peanut butter blossoms are super easy to make so it’s the perfect recipe to make together.
Peanut Butter Blossoms
Cookies are the perfect recipe to make with your kids. This one is fun because it has chocolate kisses to add to the top. They are soft and light and come out good every time! You really can’t go wrong.
The truth is, I want to provide balance for my kids. We try to eat healthy meals but we also like treats. Having a cookie and a big ol’ glass of milk definitely hits the spot. Did you know that milk is the number 1 food source of calcium, vitamin D and potassium? But kids are drinking less and less of it so they aren’t getting enough nutrients to grow. Which is surprising to me because kids love milk! It tastes so good and nothing is better than an ice cold glass of milk, right?
As my kids are getting older, this is super important to me. Giving them milk with meals is a simple way to help kids get natural protein and balanced nutrition to help them grow up strong.

Here are a few ways my family and I pour more milk:
- Adding milk to old family favorite recipes like Mom’s Chicken Enchiladas, Milk Chocolate Chip Pancakes, or Slow Cooker Zesty Italian Chicken
- Chocolate or Strawberry Milk – every once in awhile I let my kids add a little flavor to their milk.
- Obviously cereal wouldn’t be good without milk but I also like to add it to oatmeal and Cream of Wheat
- Add milk to fun drinks like Chocolate Chip Cookie Hot Cocoa, smoothies, and more!
