Cooking With Kids: Easy Brownies Using The Microwave

I have found a great kids recipe this week to include in my cooking with kids series. I love baking easy brownies as much as my kids love eating them. But it is even better when the kids can do it. I find that the more I let the kids do themselves, the more independent they feel about all areas of their lives.

I love a cooking for kids recipe that includes the microwave because to me it is safer than the oven or stove-top and I can actually turn my back for a minute if I need to. So here ya go mom’s, let the kids make dessert tonight!
