Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen #23: Oreo Fluff

Time for Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen
(A weekly linky where you can share your special time in the kitchen, such a great place for learning. You can also link up Kid-Friendly Recipes)

The linky is at the bottom.

This week we have been reviewing all the Days of Creation.
I was actually going to make this last week to go with Day 6, but had something come up.
On day 6 of Creation, God made the land animals, and then he made man in His image.
We actually read further in the Bible to the details of how God made man, forming him of the dust of the ground.
7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul."

So I decided we would make the Oreo Fluff to represent mud or clay from the ground.
The original recipe uses white chocolate pudding, but we needed chocolate to make it look like mud.


Oreo Fluff Recipe 

1 small box white chocolate instant pudding (we used chocolate)
2 cups milk
1 small tub Cool Whip
24 Oreos, crushed
2 cups mini marshmallows

First we crushed the Oreos.




Then we made the pudding.





Then we added the Cool Whip...



...the crushed Oreos...


...and the marshmallows.


I set it in the refrigerator until dinner time. Then I put some in my pie dish and surrounded it my animals. We are reviewing Day 6 of creation after all.




Do you have your children help you in the kitchen?  What lessons do they learn? Do you have any kid friendly recipes to share?
