How to Make Fruit Roll-Up Fortune Cookies:

M grandkids LOVE Fruit Roll-Ups, Fruit by the Foot, Gushers, Fruit Snacks, etc. I know these fortune cookies would be a hit! Especially like you said, with fortunes in them!!! Very clever & pinned!!

Jason would love these so much. Even though he is 10 he is the kid that loves love. He wants me to write a note on his napkin telling him I’m thinking of him. I only have a few precious years, months, days, hours…who knows, left.

These look so much easier than the real fortune cookies I attempted making one year (and burned my fingers on over and over again). I bet my kids would love these for Valentine’s Day.
