Bunco Recipe Idea – Dice Cookies

Pin to Pinterest

Raise your hand if your bunco night is less about the dice and more about the food and time spent with friends? I don’t know about you, but when bunco night comes around and it’s my time to host, I am often struggling for the best recipe idea. These dice cookies can be used with a girls’ bunco night or have fun making them with the kids to celebrate a family game night!

Bunco: (also Bunko or Bonko) is a game played in teams with three dice. The game is played with two or more people often in teams of two. An ideal game has three tables of four people (12 people total), with two people at each table on a team for a total of six teams. The goal of the game is to get the Bunco (three matching dice) for a total of 21 points. The team with the most points wins.

What You Need:

  • Decorating bags
  • Parchment paper
  • Square Cookie Cutter or use a knife

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup softened butter
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 cups + 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • Tube black icing
  • 16 oz creamy vanilla frosting


Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 325° and line a couple baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Use a hand mixer to beat your butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in your vanilla and almond extract and egg.
  4. Then mix your flour in and continue to mix until your ingredients start sticking together.
  5. Roll your dough out onto a floured piece of parchment paper and use your square cookie cutters to cut out your dice shapes and place onto your lined baking sheets.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes (depending on how thick your dough squares are) and let cool.
  7. Fill one decorating bag with your black icing and one with your vanilla frosting and cut the tips off.
  8. Frost a white outline on each square, fill in, and smooth your frosting out.
  9. Now draw small circles onto the white squares for the dice numbers.

Brown Bear Cookies

Pin to Pinterest

I love this dessert because it has many uses. First, it’s a fun winter food craft for the kids. Second, we are huge Eric Carle Fans and it reminds me of the Brown Bear book. Finally, it fits perfectly for a bear theme party. Have fun making these cookies from scratch. The recipe yields about 36 cookies. If you are in a pinch for time, use a sugar cookie package mix.

Ingredients:

  • 6 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 cup butter, softened to room temperature
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cups sour cream
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract

Chocolate Frosting Ingredients:

  • Wilton dark brown chocolate candy melts
  • Wilton candy eyes
  • Mini Nilla Wafers
  • Brown M&M’s


Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Combine the flour and baking powder and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl combine the butter, sugar, egg, sour cream and vanilla. Slowly fold in the flour and baking powder mixture.
  4. Scoop the cookie dough into 2″ balls and place about 2″ a part on a large baking sheet. Use a flat bottom glass to gently press (flatten) each dough ball to about 1/4″. Consider laying on parchment paper.
  5. Bake 6-8 minutes.
  6. Once the cookies have cooled, generously frost each one with chocolate frosting and set aside.
  7. Place 2 chocolate candy melts on the cookie for the bears ears.
  8. Give each cookie 2 eyes.
  9. Place 1 mini Nilla Wafer on the bottom of the cookie for the bear’s snout.
  10. Place a small dab of chocolate frosting on the brown M&M’s and give the bear a nose.

*Makes approximately 36 cookies

S’mores Milkshake

Pin to Pinterest

This S’mores milkshake is a drinkable version of everyone’s favorite dessert. First we roast (broil) our marshmallows and then blend them with ice cream, cream, milk, syrup, and graham crumbs. We have a feeling you won’t be sharing when you prepare this dessert. We also think Santa would appreciate it if you left him out one (wink!)

Ingredients:

  • 16 Marshmallows
  • 6 Scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 4 Cups milk
  • ½ Cup heavy cream
  • ¼ Cup chocolate syrup
  • Chocolate shavings
  • Graham crumbs
  • Mini marshmallows


Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees with the broiler setting on. Place the 16 marshmallows in a baking pan and take to the oven.
  2. Let them roast (about 8 minutes) and take out of the oven.
  3. In a blender place ice cream, heavy cream and milk and pulse until combined.
  4. Add the roasted marshmallows and the chocolate syrup and pulse until everything is mixed.
  5. Pour into glasses and decorate with the mini marshmallows, graham crumbs and chocolate shavings. We added some nutmeg to ours.
  6. Serve and enjoy.

Tips: You can substitute the chocolate syrup for 4 Tbsp cocoa powder + 2 Tbsp sugar.

Best Asian Pineapple Meatballs Recipe

I love a good savory meal. I am not sure there are many people who would not agree with me on that. I also love a meal that brings great flavors but doesn’t take many hours for me to make on a week night. The quicker the better.

Recently I worked with Cans Get You Cooking and was inspired by their “Cantry” pantry focus. How many times is your family ready for dinner and you have no idea where to begin? Did you know this fact? 60% of moms think that coming up with dinner ideas is more difficult than getting their children to go to bed on time. This is true for me! With canned food staples like canned fruits, veggies, broth and sauces on-hand, you can easily make it a Cantry night! Cans seal in foods’ natural goodness and nutrition so it’s there for you any time. Not only are they available and fresh, but they cut the prep process by a lot – that speaks volumes to me!

Canned foods can be a hallmark of a healthy diet. An analysis of NPD data shows that adults and children who ate 6+ canned food items over two weeks were more likely to meet or exceed their recommended daily allowance for 17 essential nutrients than those who ate 1-2 canned food items over the same two-week period. To me, it can be as easy as eating a healthy rounded diet at home or resorting to takeout or go out to eat because I don’t have the ingredients on-hand to make dinner! If I didn’t have the above ingredients at home, it would only be a quick 15 minute run to the store and plenty of money saved in the store over running to my nearest restaurant trying to fill an entire family’s likes and tastes. That adds up, on both calories and price!
