Happy Birthday Becca!

Today is my best friend's birthday! My little baby Becca turns 18 today! Can you believe it?? I know, I can't either. She's just so little and cute! I know that we are the same age, but I will always see her as being younger than me. For example, it is still weird for me sometimes that she can drive. Like how can that be legal??

Anyways, for her birthday I made her s'mores cookies with a Rolo in the middle and chocolate peanut butter ganache coating. Grahams, mallows, caramel, chocolate and peanut butter. What more could a girl want on her 18th birthday? 

It started with this recipe, and I used a Rolo instead of a piece of chocolate.

I broke them apart and then trimmed the edges, so that they didn't look like a complete disaster, but sometimes you just have to be a hot mess. Okay, in my case, I always have to be a hot mess. I've gotten really good at it. It has become part of who I am. Actually, for a hot mess, I'm really organized... Maybe I should rethink this whole thing... 

Not THIS whole thing. No no no I would never rethink this. Although, if I ever made them again, I would probably try to make them more of a whole bar and not individual cookies, but hey, this worked out okay. Because after they were baked and cooled and separated and trimmed, I coated them with this peanut butter chocolate ganache recipe and then decorated them with Reese's pieces. 

Happy Birthday Becca!! Love you to the moon & back.
