We managed to get our trampoline in the hole. Sort of. My husband still has to dig out a little more dirt because one side is higher than the other. Yikes! Times like these I'm glad I'm the woman.
I didn't have time for crafting this weekend, so I'm sharing a recipe. A chocolate recipe. I've been on a chocolate kick lately. Not sure why, but it seems like I am always craving it. Which is strange for me during the summer, because usually I prefer cold, creamy, fruity desserts during hot weather. Not this year. It's been all about chocolate. And of course I always love chocolate with mint. Yum!
I got this recipe from Finding Joy in My Kitchen. She linked it up with my Cookie Exchange way back in December. I love chocolate and mint together, so I knew it was only a matter of time before I tried them. I finally did, and I'm not so sure it was a good thing.
These babies are heavenly! And they are so easy to make that it is scary. I had to give them away because I could NOT stop eating them. I love the crunch from the cereal and the Oreos. So darn good!!
Mint Chocolate Cookie Crunch
1/2 bag Andes mints
12oz bag of chocolate chips (I used semi-sweet)
2 cups Rice Crispies cereal
1/2 package of Oreos, crushed
Melt mints and chocolate chips in a large glass bowl in the microwave at 50% power, stirring often. Add the Rice Crispies and Oreos and stir till combined. Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Let sit till hardened. That's it!

Wow. Those sound divine. Definitely on my list of things to try!
My husband would LOVE those! I'm not a fan of Rice Krispies myself, but he is and he's crazy about mint chocolate. Thanks for the recipe!
I'm not a fan of rice crispies either. But I sure like them in these.
