Create Christmas Cookie Memories with the Kids + Betty Crocker Giveaway #GetYourBettyOn
5:29 PMThis post is brought to you in collaboration with Betty Crocker, all opinions are my own.
One of my favorite memories as a child was making Christmas cookies with my mom. In fact, that is how I spent my afternoon, making Christmas cookies at her house today. I try to carry on this tradition and make memories with my own boys, but I am not a fan of always cooking from scratch, that is what makes Betty Crocker my holiday hero. With their cookie mixes, cookie icing and other baking products, I can create Christmas cookie memories with the boys without making a huge mess!
Over the Thanksgiving holiday when my sister was here, I rounded the boys, my mom, my one sister and my nephew to help make gingerbread cookies together. We baked them using the Betty Crocker gingerbread cookie mix and then took them outside to decorate in the amazing weather with various colors of Betty Crocker cookie icing and holiday sprinkles. I think they turned out great, and the memories of decorating Christmas cookies with three generations of my family are ones I will never forget!
Betty Crocker has a wide range of cookie mixes and other baking products that make it possible to make plenty of holiday memories without a lot of fuss. Betty Crocker wants to help you get creating in the kitchen with your kids, so they have developed the Kid's Cookie Corner full of awesome cookie ideas like these 6 Santa cookie creations and these 11 no-bake Christmas treats to make with kids.

There are so many wonder lessons our children can learn from participating in family activities such as cooking together. My son and I do it on occasion and we love the food that we cook together! PS The cookies look delicious!
