Make a Batch of Jumbles Kids at Fayette with extra spending money could buy snacks and candy at the company store. They chose from familiar treats like gum, licorice, caramels, jawbreakers and gingersnaps. Another treat they bought, less familiar to kids today, is called a jumble.
Jumbles are thin, ring-shaped sugar cookies.
But you don't have to buy them at a store, you can make them right at home. To make your own jumbles, carefully read and follow the directions below. Younger children should make Jumbles under the supervision of an adult because they will need to use a hot stove. Make sure you have all your supplies and ingredients out and ready on a clean table or large working surface. All the WET ingredients will be mixed in the Big Bowl with a big spoon and the DRY ingredients will be mixed in the Medium Bowl with another big spoon.
