Tasty Treats

This morning brought another COLD day, so it called for some mom & child cooking time again. I found a very yummy recipe for these treats and was even able to use some of those Oreos I had been hoarding!

Mint Chocolate Cookie Crunch
1 1/2 bags chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
1/2 (20 ounce) package chocolate cream-filled sandwich cookies, coarsely crushed
2 cups crisp rice cereal
Melt chocolate chips and add extract. (I used a bag of Nestle Dark Chocolate & Mint Chips and then another cup of chocolate chips in place of the extract.) Mix with cookies and cereal. Scoop onto wax paper and let set.
And . . . the best part

. . . licking the bowl!
