Oreo cookies covered in vanilla candy melts. Easy to do but yes it is time consuming. Would probably have been even more time consuming if I had used the decorator bags to pip the candy into the molds. I did try on just two cookies to spoon the different color in place but it bled out. You can see the two cookies in the back that I tried it out on. Really I don't think the soldiers are going to care what they look like but only how they taste.
In other news, for the past three days I've been making pineapple smoothies. I found that I really don't like the one with the frozen banana in it at all. It gives me indigestion. Yesterday I made pineapple and blueberry smoothie which wasn't bad. Today it was pineapple and blackberry smoothie. I make enough for two servings so that I get my serving in every morning and J can have his serving, I stick it in the freezer, as more of a frozen fruit ice in the evening.
My smoothie recipe:
1 cup of frozen fruit
3 ice cubes
1 TBSP honey; more or less for sweetness
3 pineapple rings
1 cup almond milk or low fat milk
Puree' in blender and serve in a glass.
I bought a large package of Oreo double stuff for the above cookies.
Well your post is just filled with yummy treats today! Looks like you did great job on cookies :)
ReplyDeleteI love making other people happy with my cooking and baking.
DeleteThat smoothie sounds awesome! My nutritionist friend makes a pineapple and cilantro version, which is supposedly very detoxifying and healthy, although you have to be a fan of cilantro, obvy. :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll give it a try. Any clue how much cilantro?
DeleteThe pineapple/blackberry sounds awesome! I love pineapple and I love cilantro, but I can't really imagine them together.....
DeleteI use that same mold every year and make mint chocolate covered oreos :) Yours look delicious!
ReplyDeleteI actually got a few of them too this time. Yummy!
DeleteCookies look yummy. I have been having mango/banana smoothies with almond milk, they are yummy!
ReplyDeleteToday I had a raspberry/pineapple/almond milk smoothie.
DeleteThe cookies look like they turned out great, and I smiled at your comment about the soldiers not caring how they look. I'm sure you are right :) I'm visiting from ICLW and just wanted to say good luck on your IUI cycle. I will have everything crossed for you. -Erin http://loveismultiplied.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check out your blog. Thanks for stopping by mine.
DeleteThose look amazing! I may have to try that! I've been craving the mint Oreos covered in chocolate, but I don't think they make them like that. Happy ICLW!
ReplyDeleteI don't think they make them either. I might try making a batch soon too.
