How to Make Finding Dory Cookies

Blog· Food and Drinks

Even though my husband and I don’t have kids yet, we often catch ourselves watching animated movies. One movie that I noticed that we always seem to fall back into watching is Finding Nemo. It’s one of those movies that I can watching time and time again without ever getting bored. That is saying a lot since I’m not a big movie buff and would much rather play on the computer than watch TV.

We recently purchased a 4k TV for our bedroom and it has completely changed the way I watch TV. The colors are brighter, the pictures are more crisp and I find myself enjoying the whole TV watching experience like never before. Our TV has 3D functions, so the first night we got it set up, I gave it a try. I wanted to watch something fun and quick and I happen to cross the Finding Dory movie trailer and could not turn away. Not only was the 3D experience amazing, I couldn’t believe I hadn’t seen the trailer before.

“Finding Dory” reunites the friendly-but-forgetful blue tang fish with her loved ones, and everyone learns a few things about the true meaning of family along the way. The all-new big-screen adventure dives into theaters in June 2016, taking moviegoers back to the extraordinary underwater world from the original film.

Disney•Pixar’s “Finding Dory” reunites everyone’s favorite forgetful blue tang, Dory, with her friends Nemo and Marlin on a search for answers about her past. What can she remember? Who are her parents? And where did she learn to speak Whale?

With all the excitement, I knew I wanted to celebrate so I made some Finding Dory cookies from scratch. These cookies are so cute and you can use them for any Disney party or just for your little ones.
