Let’s face it, sometimes dessert is necessary…ok for some of us it is always necessary! lol
Every year, in the summer we have made a traditional dessert in our home called ‘edible sand.’ Basically it consists of cookie crumbs and Philadelphia cream cheese and usually eaten in a plastic bucket, but for the purposes of this post I we did not have many cookie options nor clean new buckets to eat from so we substituted with a plain bowl and Dad’s Original Oatmeal cookies. I personally love this dessert because it is easy, and a great way to get the kids involved…not to mention a really easy dessert for a beach party or summer event too!
Here’s what you need:
-Cookies: any type will do, just make sure they are brown/black in colour and have a harder consistency.
-A blender
-Original Philadelphia cream cheese: haven’t tried other flavors, but I am sure they will be equally as yummy!
-Bowl/cup/bucket
Directions per 1 serving:
-Place 2 cookies in a blender and blend well
-Take 1 tbs of Philidelphia cream cheese and place in bowl.
-Cover cream cheese with cookie crumbs, mix and enjoy!
