Sorry didnt know where to post. I am going to be making up a monthly "care pkg" for my neice and nephew who live in another state. While they visited us over the summer (their parents are going thru a horrible divorce
) one of the special things we did was bake...I was taken aback that my 15 and 11 yr old neice/nephew had never baked anything in their life..no cookies nothing,not even the slice and bake kind. But then again my sister is the "homely" type so it dosent suprise me.
Anyway, I was planning on sending a priority mail box (to insure freshness) of baked goods. Any suggestions? I would like to send more than just cookies every month although they would love that. They live in the desert so half the yr would have to be non melting sweets. I am also including little letters of encouragement and trinkets corresponding to things like holidays/seasons but wanted to add something they could enjoy eating as well since they kept saying that baking (which we do alot of around here) was the best ever. I not a candy maker, I tried once and it was horrible. Recipes would be appreciated. TIA
