Spring break is the perfect time to get the kids cooking. Most kids love getting their hands dirty in the kitchen – it’s just as much fun as an art project.
We had the kids in mind when we devised this recipe for an “icebox” cake (did you know that fridges were called iceboxes way back when?). It’s easy to make and requires no precise measurements. Let the kids decide what proportions of homemade jam, dried cranberries and vanilla yogurt to use. We bet they’ll be grinning from ear to ear when they present the fruit of their labours!
