Ingredients and Equipment:
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup applesauce
2 T. honey
2 oatmeal cookies
4 wooden Popsicle sticks
paper cups

1. In a small mixing bowl use a spoon to together yogurt, applesauce, and honey till well mixed.
2. Put a piece of waxed paper on the counter. Holding the cookies over the waxed paper, crumble the cookies with your fingers.
