Thin Mint S'more

Yes, you read that correctly.

Last night in our "what to do next?" phase we decided on s'mores. And right then it hit me...girl scout cookies are everywhere right now and a thin mint would make a perfect addition to the beloved s'more!

Here it is, so simple, yet so good.

We had a few variations going last night. Our friend ditched the graham cracker all together and just did a marshmellow sandwich in between two thin mints. And then, Jimi, had the more traditional style - with everything in the s'more, and just adding the thin mint in on top of it all. Below you will find mine, I substituted the chocolate for the thin mint. No matter which way you put it...it is all good!

Foods on Pinterest

Pinterest is great for new recipes! 

A few weeks ago I came across this awesome recipe that you can now find on my Foods board on my Pinterest.

The Rolo Stuffed Snickerdoodle!

I bought Pillsbury sugar cookie dough and a package of Rolos, went home and went to town.  I liked this recipe because 1. it is easy and 2. it sounded delicious, and it was.

Here is a play by play of my fun evening in the kitchen baking these bad boys!

I am a bit obsessed with them at the moment.

Find the recipe here at Rachel Schultz's blog.

National Ice Cream Sandwich Day

National Ice Cream Sandwich Day was officially yesterday, Thursday August 2nd, so I decided I would make my own with yummy chocolate chip cookies baked by a friend's mom, with chocolate ice cream sandwiched in between. 

It was a little ambitious and Jimi had to help me eat it, but it was a delicious treat.  It is my favorite kind of dessert, but I rarely have it, because it is just so rich.

Did you enjoy an ice cream sandwich yesterday?  Here is a little preview of the monstrosity I created.

Enjoy!
