Whenever anyone asks for a good recipe to make with kids, or if I need a quick recipe to make with little ones, I turn to Forrest Gump's Kissy Cookies. While staying in a beautiful home in Park City with my husband's college "posse," as they call themselves, I saw a baking opportunity. We had a total of four kids on the trip, with one on the way. These were good cookies to make because of all the jobs that can be created. You need a few hands to measure and mix only three ingredients. And a few kids can unwrap all of the Hershey's Kisses. Chocolate chips can also be used instead. And I always use creamy peanut butter. But you never know what you're going to get.
