Make these adorable Christmas treats for kids to share at a classroom party or a family get together. Or make a day of it and get the kids involved. I don’t know about you but my boys love helping in the kitchen!

Anyone else ready for the weekend? I have a long list of things I want to accomplish and now I have added make at least one of these Christmas treats for kids with Oscar. Aren’t they the cutest? Have I mentioned how much I LOVE the holiday season?!

Making Christmas treats is really one of the highlights of the holidays for me.

I love eating treats sure, but making them is so much fun! And now that my kids are big enough to help out, we can really get into it. The hardest part is choosing what to make!

From hot cocoa bombs to peppermint chocolate bowls, we have a lot of fun options.

Powdered Donut Snowmen – I can see how these would be great to share with others, but I can’t see making enough for a party. They seem pretty time intensive.

It would be great to make a few for the family, take some pictures to put on Instagram, and then eat them! They are so adorable and who doesn’t love powdered donuts?
