Cooking with Minnie Mouse

"Cooking with Minnie Mouse" is a song from the The Mickey Mouse Club. It was performed in a "Fun with Music Day" sketch in which Jimmie Dodd and his wife Ruth teach the female Mouseketeers how to bake cookies.

Lyrics
Jimmie & Ruth: It's time to cook with Minnie Mouse Minnie Mouse, Minnie Mouse Now you out there in your own house We'll show you what to do

Ruth: We'll give you real good recipes And you'll learn how to cook with ease

Jimmie: So, let's have your attention please While Minnie cooks with you

Ruth: You'll find out that pots and pans can be a lot of fun

Jimmie: And for you boys, there'll be a lot to eat before we're done

Jimmie & Ruth: Now, everybody, here we go And, as they say, on with the show You'll be the best cook in your house Cooking with Minnie Mouse

Ruth: (spoken) Just go to your cupboard and get a box of Minnie Mouse cookie mix!

(instrumental break)

Ruth: (talk-singing) Add a little milk, mix it well, then roll out your dough And with your cookie cutters, cut out all the little friends you know

Like Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Pluto, Chip 'n' Dale Put 'em on a cookie sheet, bake 'em in the oven, this is no fairy tale

Leave 'em in the oven, eight or ten minutes, at 375 degrees When the cookies are cool, ice 'em and decorate any way you please

One important thing to remember when your cooking's through Clean up the kitchen real good and make it shine like new

So, there you have our recipe for cookies, Mouseketeers And when you serve them to your friends, you're gonna get three cheers
