The biggest thing to hit my house this Summer has been Fidget Spinners, and we have finally jumped down the rabbit hole of making Fidget Spinner Cookies. I have been asking myself “how did you get roped into this?”, and today I am sharing my quick and easy spinner mold and cookie recipe.
If you haven’t heard of these yet, you’ve either been living in a hermit hole or you’re really good at sheltering your kids. Ha! Want my quick and easy recipe? Check it out below. (BONUS: Me and the kiddos made videos to show you how to make the cookie mold and how to make the cookies. You can find those at the end of this post.)
Sometimes I ask myself “how did I get into this?”, and this is one of those times. Somehow I was talked into making Fidget Spinner Cookies, and just in case you were talked into it too, I am sharing this post with you.
I can’t even begin to tell you how many different Fidget Spinners we have running around our house. With 4 kids, you can imagine the collection of Fidget Spinners we must have. But how did we even dream up the possibility of Fidget Spinner Cookies?

Fidget Spinner Cookies
Over the Summer my youngest has become completely obsessed with making YouTube videos. In fact, she has become so obsessed we decided we would make her own Kid Friendly channel called Addy’s Cookie House. To date, she has 3 videos and 3 subscribers. Ha! Needless to say, she has become a little excited about making videos.
While on a 17 hour drive back home from our Summer vacation in Colorado she was making a list of videos she would like to make, and Fidget Spinner Cookies were on the top of her list. Being a good mom, I had to comply with those wishes, no matter how much laundry time it would take up.

Making the fidget spinner cookies is actually really easy if you have a cookie mold.
Fidget Spinner Cookie Mold
Making the cookie mold is fairly easy. All you need is a quick drying food grade molding putty and about 20 minutes. Once the mold has set for 20 minutes, pop out the spinner and then wash with soap and water before use.
It’s what I think is by far the easiest way to make fidget spinners that actually look like REAL fidget spinners. You can find two videos below, one showing you how to make the cookie mold, and one showing you how to make Fidget Spinner Cookies.
