Coconut Lime Oreo Truffles

July 28, 2014 By Shannah Coe 4 Comments

Oreo cookies are one of those things you will almost always find in our house. We buy the little snack packs in the giant size from Costco to put in lunches and will usually have just a regular package in the house for the random sweet snack. At the store the other day, I saw the new Limeade flavor and knew I had to try them. Of course, as I do with most Oreo flavors, I decided “bake” with them and made coconut lime Oreo truffles using the new flavor.

Strawberry Shortcake

Strawberries are everywhere right now. I know our berry patches are turning out some amazing strawberries and they are just begging to be eaten, cooked with and enjoyed while they are at their peak. I love eating strawberries on their own but also like to add them to desserts during the summer. For dessert not too long ago, I decided to do a slightly different take on strawberry shortcake and use a cheesecake style filling in place of the traditional whipped cream.

Thin Mints® Ice Cream Pie

July 2, 2014 By Shannah Coe 18 Comments

Every January, our house gets so excited because it is Girl Scout cookie time. By the end of the month, we are all out of the delicious cookies and it is sad faces all around. While shopping in Walmart the other day, I discovered THE BEST thing in the check out aisle. NESTLÉ® CRUNCH® Girl Scouts® Candy Bars which totally allows us to get our Girl Scouts® cookie fix even though it isn’t cookie season. I totally grabbed all of the Thin Mints® bars they had in the aisle and brought them home. We usually freeze our cookies to get them nice and cold but I decided to make Thin Mints® Ice Cream Pie with the candy bars instead.

Almond Coconut Milkshake

Summer is here and that means we are all turning to cooler foods and drinks to help beat the heat. One of my favorite desserts in the summer is a milkshake. Milkshakes are so delicious and can be made in so many different ways. We were all talking about our favorite candy bars the other day and I decided to try and make a milkshake to mimic one of Mathlete’s favorite. Creating this almond coconut milkshake was fun and was so easy thanks to Silk Almond Coconut blend that I used to get a really delicious coconut flavor. {Hint: search #collectivebias and #SilkAlmondBlends for even more almond milk recipes}

Grilled Fruit Kabobs

June 18, 2014 By Shannah Coe 11 Comments

It is only mid-June but I’ve talked a lot about how I like to cook on the grill already. So, it is probably no surprise that today’s recipe is for grilled fruit kabobs. These grilled fruit kabobs are special though because they are basted with a citrus mint glaze while they are grilled which gives them an extra punch of flavor.

Red, White and Blue No Bake Cheesecake Recipe

I love July 4th! Not only because I love our country but also because of all the fun events, decor and food that incorporates our national colors of red, white and blue. This red, white and blue no bake cheesecake recipe came about as I was racking my brain trying to decide what to make for Memorial Day {same colors and all}. I didn’t end up making it for that BBQ but got to playing around with the recipe later the next week with July 4th firmly planted in my head as inspiration.
