As an elementary school student,Tahong I remember waiting weeks — nay, months — to borrow the Star Warscookbook from the school library. Despite my near-embarrassing levels of anticipation, the only thing I ended up making was a big batch of TIE fighter twists, which are basically buttery pieces of breadstick dough wrapped around a hot dog.
They f*cking ruled.

And don't worry — they're not all on the breadstick/hot dog level (not that that's a bad thing).
1. R2-D2 popcorn

There are two great things about this snack: it's extremely easy to make (per Two Sisters Crafting), and it's best enjoyed while watching a movie ... like a Star Wars movie.
2. Sarlacc Bundt cake

You wouldn't think it would be something you'd look forward to seeing, but thanks to this Biscoff caramel cake, courtesy of Yummy Crumble, it's just the snack you're looking for.
(And please note that this is the original Sarlacc, not the re-release Sarlacc where they added all the CGI tentacles.)
3. Oreo TIE fighters

To make these little dudes, just put marshmallow in between little 100-calorie pack Oreo cookies. You can use caramel, Nutella, nut butter, or whatever else you want as glue. The best part is that these are just cookies and will not destroy any Rebel X-wings.
4. Candy lightsabers

For anybody who wants to duel, you can make your very own lightsabers by dipping pretzel rods into melted candy wafers of different colors, as suggested by Two Sisters Crafting. And if you're looking for a candy-free option, try making lightsaber skewers with fruit of the proper color (raspberries for a red blade, blackberries for the handle, etc).
5. Blue Bantha milk

If you're exhausted by all of your Jedi training, take a refreshing break with some Blue Bantha milk. Just put some food coloring in a milk of your choice, and you'll be ready to head to Tasche Station to pick up some power converters. Also, rest in peace, Aunt Beru.
Happy snacking and may the Force be with you!
