My Girl Scout troop is making a recipe book - several different categories including one just for uses of Girl Scout cookies. If anyone has a recipe they would like to include please feel free to post it. And we thank you in advance. If you have any association with Girl Scouts please post that also so we can include your information with your recipe. At the least please give me your name and city, state.

These books should be available for sale the end of March if anyone is interested. Thank you.

I was honored to be the Project Advisor for a lovely young lady for her Gold Award Project which she completed this past summer. Also, I was a Brownie Scout and a Girl Scout when I was growing up. I have enclosed a recipe for you to use if you would like, I have been making this for several years, I adapted it from a recipe I gogt from a friend.
