These Pokemon cookies are perfect for serving up at your Pokemon summer camp. The best part about these Pokemon cookies is that the kids can help you make them as a fun summer activity.

For some fun Pokémon themed treats, we made Pokemon cookies. We also made pokeball rice krispies. I just dyed half the prepared mixture lightly red then had the kids create little domes and push them together. We then used black gel to finish off the whole thing. for these giant gluten-free sugar Pokemon cookies, I gave the boys red and white frosting to make Pokeballs. They used the black gel to make it really look official.

We did a whole camp themed around these cookies. Art projects, Pokemon worksheets and lots of themed treats made for fun that the kids couldn’t get enough of.

Overall, it was such a fun camp that I know the boys will never forget. There are some more crafts that we did not featured here but if you want to do your own Pokémon camp, you can search on Pinterest for lots of super cute ideas. So I am curious, has anyone else had their phone taken over by their kids and Pokémon Go?

2 1/2 C powdered sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

In another bowl, combine first 9 ingredients (until 1 C butter and minus the powdered sugar you already mixed with the butter)
On the lowest speed, add in dry ingredients 1/2 C at a time
Dough will be thick and barely sticky
Divide dough into quarters
Lay out plastic wrap and sprinkle with white rice flour
Roll out on portion of the dough into 1/2 to 5/8 inch (you want them thick)
Using a cookie cutter, cut into desired shapes making sure to do them close together so as to leave very little leftover dough
Lift the plastic wrap and invert cookie onto your hand then place on a baking pad or parchment lined baking sheet
Repeat the process with remaining portions of dough
Bake for 10 minutes then let cool completely before frosting
To make the frosting: Whisk together cream cheese, milk and vanilla. Add in powdered sugar a little at a time and mix until thick and smooth. If you want different colors, add that in and mix just a bit more until combined well. Frost cookies with a thick layer of frosting and store in refrigerator. Enjoy with a big glass of cold milk.
