Please Bring a Dessert

Can you imagine a ww training session with food?  We were asked to bring a dessert to share with the group.  As you can imagine we had ww chocolate chip cookies, fruit, the Peanut Butter-Oatmeal Softies on page 287 from the new PP cookbook, No Bake Thin Mints, and Pecan Muffins.  I have shared the recipes for the Thin Mints and Pecan Muffins.  Enjoy!

No Bake Thin Mints

•Ritz Crackers (Use the reduced fat crackers for a lower pp value.)
•2 pkgs of Andes Creme de Menthe baking chips

Yields aprox 64 cookies (about 1/2 box of Ritz Crackers) 1 PP value each

On med-low heat, place your baking baking chips in a double boiler for melting.

Slowly your chocolate will melt and stir until completely smooth.

Dip crackers into chocolate. A candy dipping fork will make this easier. Found in the candy section of your local hobby/craft store.

                                                  

Place cookies on foil, parchment paper, or even freezer paper and let it cool for about 5-10 minutes.
