Giant Chocolate Chip Unicorn Cookies

January 28, 2021 Amanda Plott

Immediately after I made my last batch of GIANT cookies, my kid was already asking me to make some more. Of course, I didn’t want to do them exactly the same, so today I decided to go with just colorful sprinkles and a variety of chocolate chips. That’s right, a variety. Big, regular, small. Some dark, some semi-sweet.

The end result was some more amazingly delicious GIANT cookies that had something different in every bite. Some bites were full of chocolate, others of sweet candy sprinkles, and then others were a delicious cookie.

Rainbow Unicorn Swiss Roll

I realized that it had been a hot minute since I made any sort of unicorn inspired recipe, so… I had to fix that today. When I said I was going to keep things fun and bright during Spring Break here, I wasn’t kidding! This Rainbow Unicorn Swiss Roll is as delicious as it is pretty.

This is a vanilla based cake that’s colored in the best of ways and rolled up with a lightly sweetened cream cheese filling. It’s great as a sweet breakfast option, brunch, or even as dessert. Really there wouldn’t be any bad time of day to have rainbow amazingness in your life…

Unicorn Banana Bread

January 3, 2020 Amanda Plott

Usually, banana bread is banana bread is banana bread. But, being as I intend to make food a whole hell of a lot more fun and exciting this year, I decided to do what any mother does best. Add rainbows to the mix! This colorful twist on banana bread has lovingly been dubbed as Unicorn Banana Bread and it’s pretty easy to see why.

If you love banana bread, you’ll also love this Unicorn Banana Bread. Other than a few healthy swaps and the sprinkles added into the mix, this is a pretty standard banana bread. Lots of bananas, lots of whole wheat, and lots of color…

Rainbow Unicorn Poptarts

June 12, 2019 Amanda Plott

It’s ‘fantasy’ week here in my house as part of our themed summer weeks. And to kick thoughts off, I thought I would start us off with some Rainbow Unicorn Poptarts! These poptarts aren’t your usually run-of-the-mill poptarts. I mean, obviously… look at them!

They sort of give a new meaning to ‘eat the rainbow’, don’t they?

Even though my kid isn’t the biggest fan (at all) of poptarts, I figured with some rainbow inspiration, maybe she would give them another chance, right? Right?!…

Rainbow Bread

June 1, 2019 Amanda Plott

It’s the first day of Summer break and my kiddo and I are already digging into our themed weeks! This first week of summer has been dubbed cooking/baking week, which means that mea and my girl are going to spend the majority of our time in the kitchen. That’s not really a new thing to me, but… it’ll be new to have her at my side for most of it!

Since we’re baking and since it’s Pride month, I thought it would be fun for me and the girl to try our hand at making some rainbow bread. Now, I used to have a bread maker that was super handy for these sorts of things, but to be honest I couldn’t have used it here anyway. This bread is my hand and hook because of all the beautiful and NATURAL food colors used…

Santa's 'Magical' Reindeer Poop Cookies

November 30, 2017 Amanda Plott

You know that in the Spring and Summer I'm all about rainbows and unicorns but during the winter months I like to let my imagination go with snowmen and reindeer and all things holly and jolly.

Just the other day my daughter's Elf on the Shelf (Candy Cane) brought my little girl some 'reindeer poop' chocolate mints. And while I thought they were cute and all, they weren't quite the magical poo that I had imagined Santa's reindeer to have. I mean... come on, they guide Santa's sleigh and fly around the world!...
