I suppose this has more than 5 ingredients, but beaver house cookies are no-bake and very kid friendly. My friends and I used to make these all the time when we were kids.

Google cake mix cookies and you’ll get a ton of different flavors. Also Google 3 ingredient cookies or 5 ingredient cookies and you'll get more recipes.
Or get some cookie dough in a tub and bake that. Or get some cookies at a bakery and put them on your own plate and pretend you baked them yourself. Easy peasy. |
