Don't Want To Miss A Thing?

We'll let you know when a new post goes up.

As my pursuit to reinvent the Girl Scout Cookie continues (see Girl Scout Cookie Challenge – Thin Mint Mocha Icebox Cake), my challenge brings me to Tagalongs.

Girl Scout Tagalong Cookies

Peanut Butter and Chocolate

One of the most amazing flavor combinations ever created. Being that my Dad is a dentist and deathly allergic to peanuts, these two delicacies were considered “blacklisted” in our household growing up. Needless to say, in my adult life, the Girl Scout Tagalong Cookie has quickly become one of my most favorite treats. Improving on this perfect blend of cookie, peanut butter,  and chocolate coating was not going to be easy, but I was up for the challenge.

Tagalongs - Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Cookie Goodness.

I stumbled upon my inspiration for this reinvented cookie while playing around on one of my most favorite hobby and interests websites – Pinterest.

Tagalong Truffles Recipe

This recipe was inspired by Oreo Truffles on the Chef-In-Training website.

These no bake truffles are so easy to make and don’t require any special equipment.
