I’m obsessed with Girl Scout Cookies. In fact I could eat a whole box all by myself. Who can’t though, right? This year I patiently waited for them to show up at our local grocery store. I always end up buying 5-10 boxes. I ridiculous how much I love those darn cookies. I think I gain 10 pounds and finish the boxes within two days. Well the kids and hubby help out too.

Well…this year the Girl Scouts weren’t at the grocery store as often. In fact Sean and I only saw them out there once and they were low on cookies. In fact they were sold out in a lot of flavors. We didn’t even get a chance to get Thin Mints this year. Can you believe it? I was so bummer.

That got me thinking that I need to re-create the famous Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies. That way I wouldn’t have to wait a whole year to enjoy them and I could get my fix.

I thought they would be a little difficult to make because doesn’t it feel like everything you love to eat is impossible to re-create. Well these cookies are not only delicious, but super easy to make. Score! They’re crunchy around the edges and soft in the center. Then filled with a creamy peanut butter filling.

If you missed out this year on buying your yearly supply of Girl Scout Cookies, have no fear you have a recipe for their popular Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies. And if we’re being honest here, I think these ones are much better. Grab your peanut butter jar, stand mixer and go get busy. I promise you won’t regret it. Have fun!
