Galaxy's Edge-Inspired Blue Milk by Tara's Multicultural Table
If you've been to a Disney park in the past few years, you probably have seen their green and blue milk. Everyone knows the latter is obviously superior. It's like a dreamy, creamy slush with notes of pineapple, coconut and dragonfruit. Now, you can have it whenever, wherever.

DIY Red Lightsaber Churros by Brite and Bubbly
Around Star Wars season, the Disney parks will often add lightsaber churros to their iconic carts. Sadly, not all of us can go to Disneyland or Disney World whenever our heart desires. But thanks to Brite and Bubbly, we can bring a slice of the franchise to our home. The magic to get its bright shade? Red pop rocks, sanding sugar and Jolly Ranchers.

BB-8 Caramel Popcorn by Mom Always Finds Out
References don't always have to be on the nose. For example, this recipe from Mom Always Finds Out pays a subtle homage. This popcorn—mixed with chocolate, pretzels and M&M's—comes in BB-8's signature colors. Plus, the blend of sweety and salty is uber satisfying.

Wookiee Cookie Brownies by Star Wars (Jenn Fujikawa)
We unlocked a vault because the Star Wars website has an endless list of themed recipes. One of our favorites, however, had to be these Wookiee Cookie Brownies. You'll make the rich, fudgy brownie as usual, but it's extra fun to see the Wookiee fur and smile come to life as the decoration.

Star Wars Cookies by The Monday Box
This recipe tasks you to create the dough from scratch, but that might be the least challenging part. The real task is assembling the pieces into the perfect puzzle to become your favorite Star Wars character. As long as you have the cut-outs, as the author suggests, it may be simpler than you'd expect.
