My family has movie night on Friday nights. Does your family do “movie night?” We usually have pizza for dinner because the kiddos love it – and it’s something they can help with! Actually, now that my kids are getting older, they can do the entire process – from making the dough to baking – all by themselves. I have to admit, I may be a food blogger, but it’s nice having a night off from cooking once in awhile! 🙂
Although we typically enjoy copious amounts of popcorn for movie night … because what’s a movie without popcorn … sometimes, we like to change things up a bit. If you’ve read my blog for any length of time, you know how I roll! My personal hashtag should be #neverthesametwice …. oops!
I decided to make a Cookie Mix and although I’ve had the idea for the longest time, I have had the hardest time finding the cookie dough bites that I wanted to use! Thankfully, I finally found them at Walgreens!! Woot woot for finding the unfindable!
Of course, you can totally customize this to your family’s tastes and preferences. If you find other cookie-themed food, feel free to add them to the mix – they say, “the more, the merrier,” right? I am so down with more cookies!
I found some cute little fry boxes that we used to hold our snacks – somehow, cute packaging makes things better, doesn’t it?
So easy and so delicious! You’ve got the snack, now go grab a movie!

Movies are just the ultimate medium for humans to experience stories. They expand our emotional bandwidth – help us feel sensations that we rarely experience in our normal lives.

So easy! I made this for an office birthday party and people raved. Such a simple thing bringing so many smiles (and threats because they couldn't stop eating it). LOL. Thank you!
