100 Homemade Snacks Every 1960s Kid Begged Mom to Make

1964, a Saturday afternoon, and the whole house smelled like brown sugar and warm butter. Rice cereal treats cooling in a pan, popcorn balls glued together with molasses, peanut butter cookies with fork marks pressed across the top. Stay for the whole stretch, because the ones near the end are the ones people ask about years later. In this video: ✓ Rice cereal treats ✓ Molasses popcorn balls ✓ Peanut butter cookies with fork marks ✓ Homemade snacks from the 1960s Nobody in a 1960s kitchen called any of this a plan. A snack was whatever the pantry and a free afternoon allowed, and a kid hanging around the stove usually got the spoon to lick. That's what these hundred recipes really were: small afternoons that tasted like somebody had time for you. Which one did you beg for most? Leave it in the comments, and maybe make a batch this week. The boxes and bags that replaced them are fine, but none of them ever came out warm. 1960s #HomemadeSnacks #VintageRecipes
