My kids love making things for me, so with Mother's Day coming up we came up with a recipe that not only they can make, but all the kids out there can too!  It doesn't require any baking, only a few ingredients, and it's also healthy.  If you'd prefer not to use cinnamon you can always add in some cocoa powder and it's quite delicious too.  Either way, every kid can make their mom a special treat on her special day...enjoy!
