But how about <a target='_blank'href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/bantha-milk-and-cookies" target="_blank">'bantha milk' and cookies</a>? Produced by female banthas (large furry creatures inhabiting the Star Wars universe), this bright beverage is fun to recreate with milk, apple juice, bananas and blueberries. If you want to make it more blue, add a splash of food colouring. As for the cookies, they require barely any prep at all. Give them around 12 minutes in the oven and serve warm &ndash; yum!</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/Bantha_Milk_and_cookies_hero__square_GL?scl=1"></p><h2>Jabba the houmous</h2><p>Why have regular, run-of-the-mill houmous when you can give it a Star Wars twist?

No baking is required &ndash; simply decorate mini gingerbread men with plenty of icing and chocolate sprinkles.</p><p>You'll just need:</p><ul><li>120g Asda White Piping Icing</li><li>30pk Asda Baker&rsquo;s Selection Mini Gingerbread Men</li><li>120g Asda Black Piping Icing</li><li>100g Asda Ice Cream Choc Sprinkles<br> </li></ul><p>Spread the white icing in an even layer (with a butter knife if needed). Put some of the choc sprinkles onto a plate and firmly press in the gingerbread men, icing down. Use the fine tip on the black piping icing to pipe three dots, for eyes and a nose and lines to separate the legs and arms. Pipe a thick stripe of black icing diagonally across the body of the cookies for the belt. Put a round tip onto the white icing and pipe dots of white along the belt. Set the cookies aside to dry at room temperature before serving.</p><h2 style="text-align: center;"><img alt="screen_shot_2019-04-23_at_16.12.26__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/screen_shot_2019-04-23_at_16.12.26__square_GL?scl=1" /></h2><h2>Princess Leia cinnamon buns</h2><p>It's impossible to think of Princess Leia without that distinctive hairdo coming to mind.
