I haven’t made rice krispie treats since… hmm, let me think… probably college. When I saw this recipe, I thought they looked like they would be delicious, and of course, they were! Also.. they last forever, don’t you have such a love/hate relationship with treats that last awhile?!   Oreo Rice Krispie Treats Ingredients: 1/2 […]

Oh, you guys, you have to try these Mint Chocolate Cookies!!! A few weeks ago, we made a stop into Coldstone Cremery and had one of my favooooorite desserts! Their Mint Mint Chocolate Chocolate Chip Signature Creation. GAHHHHHH… my tummy is rumbling right now while typing that!!! It’s DELICIOUS! I’m not typically a huge fan […]
