We made the green pancakes today (yes a day early) for breakfast! How are you celebrating St.Patrick's Day? Are you trying any of these ideas?

Happy 100th Birthday Oreo!!

Today is Oreo's 100th Birthday! That is something to celebrate! So...we did with a rendition of this OREO & Ice Cream Sandwich Cake! *I don't have a printer that has ink at the moment nor do I have a laptop with wireless so I was half doing this by memory and half with a "recipe" of jotted down notes! I apparently can't read though and missed the part about adding in the oreos! Ha ha! 

Here is what it should look like...

Here is what mine looked like...

The Recipe: (from Kraft)

1/2 cup hot fudge ice cream topping, warmed

1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed, divided

1 pkg. (3.9 oz.) JELL-O Chocolate Instant Pudding

16 OREO Cookies, chopped (about 2 cups), divided

12 vanilla ice cream sandwiches

POUR fudge topping into medium bowl. Whisk in 1 cup COOL WHIP. Add dry pudding mix; stir 2 min. Stir in 1 cup chopped cookies. (I forgot this part so I added a layer in their of cookies)

   ARRANGE 4 ice cream sandwiches, side-by-side, on 24-inch-long piece of foil (I placed this on top of a pan); top with half the COOL WHIP mixture. Repeat layers. Top with remaining sandwiches. Frost top and sides with remaining COOL WHIP; press remaining chopped cookies into COOL WHIP on top and sides of cake. Bring up foil sides; double fold top and ends to loosely seal packet. (I don't know what double fold means...but I covered it at least)

FREEZE 4 hours. (It really needs 4 hours...we gave it like 1 hour)

It was enjoyed by all! 

Did you do anything to celebrate Oreo's birthday??
