It's Girl Scout Cookie season! In honor of this yummy time of year, we at Foodista wanted to share a quick and easy copycat recipe that tasted just like the real thing. It's got quite a lot going for it too. 3 ingredients, Vegan, 15 minutes from thought to plate. Need we go on? We also love that the original creator also mentions that Ritz crackers are accidentally Vegan. Anyhow, here you go!
