No baking, just a handful of ingredients needed and delicious treats as a reward. Put a tray of doughnuts moulds to good use and revamp classic rice pop cakes into these customisable bites.

10. Instant vanilla ice cream

Little kids will get a real kick out of this recipe; part science experiment, part tasty treat. Double bag all your ingredients and make sure they're sealed well to avoid any kitchen disasters.

After around 10-15 minutes, open your bags, scoop into bowls and sprinkle with your favourite toppings.
