No bake. Three ingredients. Guaranteed hit. Plus, it is so much fun for children to make!
All I have to do is get the ingredients out and instantly there appear volunteers from the audience. Dressed the part, even! Chef hat and all.
Children of all ages love to dip cookies in milk!
Perfect to let the children make for a summer party.

In our house Cookies and Cream is so beloved, our eldest requested it rather than a cake for her birthday last year!
