Happy Tuesday! It’s that time of year again. The time of year when little girls wearing uniforms begin knocking on doors. No, this isn’t some elaborate game of “Ding Dong Ditch”. It is Girl Scout Cookie Time! If you are anything like me, you know the joy of pulling a sleeve of frozen Thin Mints out of the freezer and eating only one cookie…. promptly devouring the entire thing! While delicious, these little minty wonders are not exactly the healthiest of foods. To combat my craving this time of year, I have created a Raw, Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Vegan version of Girl Scout Thin Mints. These little wonders contain only 4 ingredients (all available at Rollin’ Oats Market) and take mere minutes to make! Get ready for a “fudgie” taste sensation!
Ladies & Gentlemen… I give you Mint Fudgie Babies!!!!
