    I was here back in 2009 and had forgotten about your very inspirational Resurrection Cookies...well, Easter is only a year away!...*

    This is perfect timing so thanks so much for sharing this. This Easter as we continue to be blessed, I am passing it on. Angel blessed for making Easter understandable for the youngsters!

    What a wonderful idea! I hope a lot of people with kids read about this and follow through by making some of these cookies with their kids.

    What a neat way to explain Easter and what it means to kids and adults alike. These cookies look really nice and fun to make.I will have to try making them sometime.I posted a comment before and not sure why it did not post. Forgive me though if I double posted.

    These cookies look really neat and nice to make.I agree that this is a good way to share this with your kids about Easter and what it means. I will have to try this and see how they turn out.

    I really enjoyed reading this lens, Susan! Haven't made Resurrection Cookies, but it sounds like they'd be fun to make; will try it. Also plan on reading more of your lenses. Have a blessed evening, Rita
  • lclchors Mar 29, 2012 @ 8:40 pm | delete
    no but I will make them with my granddaughter
  • joannalynn Mar 29, 2012 @ 1:46 pm | delete
    This is a wonderful way to teach children about the resurrection and Easter. I really like the tape at the end :). I only have one son left at home, who loves meringue cookies, so we might just make them anyway! We all still get together to dye Easter eggs. Some traditions never die.
  • Dhardt Mar 17, 2012 @ 4:14 pm | delete
    Do you leave the oven on all night?
  • Susan52 Mar 17, 2012 @ 4:43 pm | delete
    Dhardt, turn the oven off after you put the cookie sheet in the oven. The residual heat "cooks" the cookies overnight. Let me know if you try it and how the exercise turns out!
  • westinscott Mar 16, 2012 @ 9:39 am | delete
    Great idea! You might want to review your ingredient list. I think you meant "salt"
  • Susan52 Mar 16, 2012 @ 10:09 am | delete
    Fixed! Thank you for noticing that and letting me know. Glad you like the cookie idea!
  • GardenCherub Mar 15, 2012 @ 9:57 pm | delete
    My kids are all grown, & grandkids nearly so. Easter always meant Sunrise Service, then breakfast at church, then regular service, then back home for Easter lunch, goodies & egg-hunting. Never heard of these Resurrection cookies, what a great idea. Thanks for a wonderful lens, Susan!
  • mamabush Mar 14, 2012 @ 10:53 am | delete
    I am definitely doing this activity with the kids this year...what a fun idea! And a wonderful visual for teaching the resurrection! :)
  • favored1 Mar 6, 2012 @ 4:21 pm | delete
    I don't have any kids, but this would be a great exercise to do with those that do.
  • Mercygirl Mar 6, 2012 @ 12:20 pm | delete
    If time permitted, these would be great to make for a Sunday School lesson.
  • Words-of-Encouragement Mar 6, 2012 @ 11:38 am | delete
    What a wonderful lens! I teach Sunday School, so this would be a perfect object lesson! I love the Easter stickers too! I went to the Dollar Store and purchased chocolate crosses to give out on Easter Sunday.
  • Squidoolinepro Mar 6, 2012 @ 10:48 am | delete
    How adorable! Great idea for a Sunday school class.

    I'm planning to make resurrection cookies with my children. It would be a fun learning activity.

    I simply love it.

    I wish I had known about this when my children were young...what a sweet way to teach the gospel message! Have a blessed Easter.

    Love it, nice job.

    What an amazing idea for easter. Love the scripture reading with the recipe instructions. Sound tasty too.

    Great lens Susan, Yes, we did this once when the girls were younger. Featured this lens on my fb page Homeschool Preschool thru High School
  • BalanceByDesign Apr 8, 2011 @ 11:30 pm | delete
    I wish I had known of these when my children were at home. But it would be a good idea to do with grandchildren. I'm going to send it to my daughters-maybe they'll bake them and do the bible study with their children. Loved the lens!
  • CosmeticMom Apr 4, 2011 @ 1:15 pm | delete
    I haven't tried them but love this idea! Great photos and step-by-step instructions!

    I had heard of the Resurrection Cookies but had not seen the devotional to go with them. Wish I had known about this when my kids were little.

    Wow, this brought back many happy memories! We used to make Resurrection Cookies every Easter with our children. They seemed to look forward to this more than the egg hunts! Loved your lens ... 5 stars, facebook, and twitter! Happy Easter to you!

    I have never heard of Resurrection Cookies before. We will definitely have to remember to make these. Angel Blessed and added to my Squid Angel Mouse Tracks lens

    We love being together with family at Easter and, of course, we share lots of great food.

    Your lens is being featured on Easter Time Headquarters and would appreciate a lensroll. Thanks!
  • guardianstar77 Mar 17, 2010 @ 2:35 pm | delete
    Another incredibly written and informative lens! I had never even heard of Resurrection cookies before. I won't make them because I won't see my grandchildren on Easter morning, but I will definitely share this with my oldest son and his wife. They have 3 beautiful children (8, 7 and 3), are dedicated Christians, and I think they will LOVE this! Thanks for the lens, Susan. 5* and I tweeted it.
  • JoyfulPamela Mar 17, 2010 @ 12:41 pm | delete
    We've wanted to do this every year, but it also seems to pass by. We'll have to try extra hard this year to get supplies and all. Beautifully displayed lens! :D

    I haven't made Resurrection Cookies but it would be a great thing to do for Sunday School. Lensrolling to Easter Event in Pendleton SC and I appreciate your adding this great lens to the Easter Plexo.

    Well done, well laid out lens. Thank you for the Cookies.

    Easter is a much more commercial holiday than it used to be (like every other holiday), but at least it isn't as bad as Christmas. I lensrolled this to my Easter greeting cards lens, speaking of commercialization!
  • Treasures-By-Brenda Mar 4, 2009 @ 8:57 am | delete
    Great idea for teaching, Susan. You've left me with a dilemna...to put your lens in the food or the religion section of my new Easter Time group...

    I've heard of doing this but we've not done it (yet!) Excellent idea.

    What a wonderful way of teaching children the Easter story. This is something that truly deserves to become a tradition in every household that celebrates Easter. Thank you for the inspiring idea.

    Beautiful lens, Susan! I've never seen this cookie recipe before, and will most certainly be sharing it with my friends and family. Thanks for sharing your passion with us...Jesus resurrection is a never ending story, and I'm happy to read how your family celebrates his victory! 5 stars, Connie : )
  • CoffeeBreaker Feb 19, 2008 @ 9:25 pm | delete
    What a great way to teach the kids. I have found that the kids will learn so much more and better if they can actually DO soemthing to help them understand. and they certainly need to understand this! Great lens! Remember...kids can only learn what they are taught - what and by whom is all up to yoU!
  • utradesports Feb 19, 2008 @ 3:31 pm | delete
    Great Lens - 5/5. Lots of excellent ideas here. I will try baking the cookies. I love pecans
  • Sandy Feb 18, 2008 @ 10:01 pm | delete
    Susan, This is a neat site! I love the way you include your real life in whatever you do...it's "cool". You have lots of great looking books that I've never heard of. Maybe we need something new this year! :)

    My kids love the Ressurection Eggs. We do them every year and every year the little ones always try to remember what is in each egg.

    God Bless You
    Sandy
