{Cooking with Kids} Elephant Biscuits



My sister and her three sons recently came for a visit for a month.  My girls had lots of fun playing and swimming with their cousins but as you know keeping them entertained is a constant battle.  I saw this cute idea on a recent blog I found, The Real Thing with the Coake Family, and I knew this would be a hit with my kiddos.  We had lots of fun making these adorable elephant biscuits and almost as fun eating them.  We made these a couple of times with different types of canned biscuits.  The first time we made them I only had jumbo layered biscuits.  The second time we made them with smaller biscuits (the kind you get 4 cans in a pack).  The smaller biscuits worked a bit better.  

Enjoy!

  7. Add the strip to the top of the biscuit to make the trunk.
