- 1 large egg

- 3/4 cup molasses

 

What They'll Do:

In a large mixing bowl, mix melted butter and egg. Add molasses and the entire jar of cookie mix. Stir until well combined. The dough will be thick so you may want to use your hands. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for one hour.

Scripture(Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭9-11 NLT):

““You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead? Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not!

So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him.”"
