Criss Cross Crumbly Crunchies
This is food kids of any age really can play with! Grandma, and indeed Grandpa, love spending time with their grandchildren - here are delicious flapjacks with a twist, something they can all create together. Warning - they are very tasty so very moreish and as they are very crumbly should be eaten in the garden unless you have a dog to wolf up the crumbs!
