Did you have a great Valentine’s Day?! I sure hope so!
I must admit that ours was pretty perfect. The hubby and I agreed a long time ago that we wouldn’t exchange gifts on Valentines and would only do cards and a nice date. Can I tell you how great that is?! There is no pressure and no expectations, and it’s wonderful. I LOVE it!! We’ll actually be going out tonight so last night I made a nice dinner, rented movies, and had ice cream and chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. 🙂
Now that Valentine’s Day is officially over, my mind has already shifted towards St. Patrick’s Day and Easter, and I’m already busy thinking of some great things for these holidays. This next dessert is one that I think would be a perfect green dessert fro St. Patrick’s Day that came from Kraft Foods. What’s great about it as well is that it’s easy and is sooo good. If you like mint and oreos, I promise you’ll love this next recipe cuz man, was it good!
I hope you love these Frozen Grasshopper Squares as much as we did…

Oh i cannot wait to make a bunch of green treats:)
Oh man! These look SOOOO good!
Wow! Sounds like a perfect dessert for me I love oreos and mint ice cream is my favorite! The chocolate curls just give these bars the perfect touch!
YUM!!! Forget the oreos. Just give me the mint chocolate chip ice cream. LOVE that stuff!!!
I make a version of this where you pour a jar of hot fudge over the cruched oreos before the ice cream layer and it’s amazing.
Mmmmm, that sounds delish!! Thanks for the suggestion. – I will try that next time! Thanks for stopping by! 😀
Okay, well, since I happen to luuuuurve mint an Oreos (in fact, I just ate a mint oreo…how about that?), then I think it’s pretty much necessary for me to make these soon!
Thanks for sharing!
