Gift Idea For Kids - Recipes To Give With Easy Bake Oven

I received a catalog from Target and I noticed they had a coupon for a discount on Easy Bake ovens. Our Granddaughter is only 5 but I think she would love this even though the suggested age is 8 and above.  The problem is that the mixes to use with the oven  are so expensive.  Here is a list of more recipes than  they will ever grow tired of.
