Anna Zeccolo: Hi, I am Anna from Tiny Chefs. Today, we are making fun desserts for kids. We will be making Chocolate Brownies, S'mores, Rice Crispy Treats and Peanut Butter Chocolate Squares.

Each dessert recipe today will require specific materials and ingredients which I will point out along the way. Safety is very important when working with kids in the kitchen. Children should always be supervised, to be sure they are handling kitchen equipment properly as well as keeping a safe distance from heated areas. Tiny Chefs offers cooking classes and birthday parties that are both fun and educational in the Maryland, DC and Virginia areas.

I have been an educator for over ten years and have come across some fun and easy desserts that kids just love making.

So let's get started making our fun desserts for kids.
