I always like to try a little variation in the kitchen with my children – something very similar to what they’ve previously made with a twist – as it helps them build up their confidence. So when I saw this peanut butter cookie recipe<\/a> which basically means that I could get my son to put everything in a big bowl (like we do when making fairy cakes), I thought we were on to a real winner. Plus it would make a change in the kids lunchboxes.<\/p>\n

Following someone else’s recipe also meant I could teach him about what you can do when things don’t quiet go right. In this case the mixture didn’t stick to itself in the way I felt it ought to be. My husband later said we could have fixed this with more peanut butter but you could smell that there was plenty of that already. We added more butter.<\/p>\n

You will need:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"peanutbutteringredients\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Plain Flour – 8 tbsp\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Butter – soft recipe says 1 3\/4 but we just kept adding more until it stuck together.<\/em><\/p>\n

Crunchy peanut butter – 2 tbsp<\/em><\/p>\n

Caster sugar – 2 tbsp<\/em><\/p>\n

Egg Yolk<\/em><\/p>\n

I measured these out into bowls – later I will get him to do this too, but at the moment measuring in spoons is very different to what I have taught him so far – and he is only just turned 4 after all.<\/p>\n
