healthy, way
for mom to finish off her special day.

making them for her. Whether you want to make the banana pops or the
cherry S'mores (or both) they are quick and easy and kids of all ages
can help.
The
banana pops are so simple, but can be a bit messy. Using a half
banana on a stick, covered in honey and then dipped into mom's favorite
toppings they are a fun treat. These are oh so yummy and
sticky sweet.

The
Cherry S'mores are a slight twist on an old time favorite. No
campfire required for these treats.
Instead you melt the chocolaty,
marshmallow, dried cherry mixture in the microwave. Don't forget to let
them cool slightly before diving into this dessert.
