We rolled Oreo Cakesters in green sprinkles, bagged them and dressed them up with “lucky to have you for a friend” toppers. Seriously people, this is a no bake, no fail treat that’s just as cute as a button.

The littles’ teachers will be receiving a decadent crème de menthe brownie wrapped with a “lucky to have you for a teacher” tag. This is hands down, without a doubt, absolutely positively my all time favorite dessert recipe, courtesy of bestie C’s sweet mother. It has a gazillion ingredients and takes a couple of hours to make but trust me when I say that they are decadent. You will swoon from deliciousness.
