A good friend of mine passed along this recipe - hope she doesn't mind my sharing it with you! It's always a hit, with grownups and kids.
Cookies & Cream Dessert

That's it - then chill, of course...and the dessert should stay cool, too! I think you should make this recipe over the weekend, but that's me. Could you stop by with some??
