The ingredients and directions can be found at the Everyday Food Storage blog which is a site we use frequently when looking for great new recipes and ideas for using the foods we are storing. This recipe is fun because your kids can use it like play dough, and then take the shapes they made and bake them up into yummy cookies.

Jodi’s Comments:

I am the chorister for the children in my church. They did a huge program during our meeting today, so I made these cookies as a treat to reward them. One of the kids asked me what was in them so I gave the list of ingredients and was proud to include “fresh ground whole wheat from my food storage”. Well the kid pulled a nasty face and said “Are you trying to POISON us or something?”. I got all sad thinking that the kids would reject them. I didn’t teach music today so I just left the cookies for them to have during their lesson. After church I had at least 5 children come up and try to convince me to give them one of the leftover cookies, 3 kids thanked me for making such good cookies, and one little girl drew a picture of me celebrating with her after our program (with cookies!). I guess they were a hit. Another food storage recipe success!

  • What type of wheat do you recommend? I wasn't sure if you suggest one whole wheat over the other for these cookies. I do know that I'll use 1tsp. of FRESH baking powder though. Maybe try doctor grandmas delight for a natural zero cal sugar substitute. I know that it bakes well and is good for storage. Nice fun post. thanks for the share!

    I always use hard white wheat. It is my personal preference for most baking.

    By the way, I didn't give the J-O-D-I cookies to the kids. haha. I made little stars and music notes for them but made these for myself with the leftover dough.
