How to Pimp Your Girl Scout Cookies

by Angela LaFollette

It's that time of year. Girl Scouts across America are making their way door to door, smiling diligently at each potential customer. The cookies are hard to turn down, and it is even harder to decline an innocent and bright-eyed Girl Scout. You decided to order a box of everything this year, and you have no idea how you are going to eat all of these cookies once they arrive. There is no need to panic. You do not have to consume your Girl Scout cookies one box at a time.

Buying Girl Scout cookies has many rewards besides their comforting sweet taste. Girl Scout cookie sales help to support activities and programs for each troop, and they teach the scouts important life skills like setting goals and financial responsibility. According to the Girl Scouts of the Permian Basin, since the 1920s Girl Scouts have been raising money to achieve their goals. Your contribution and support aids the girls directly because every penny earned, after covering the cost of the baker, will remain with the local Girl Scout council.

Since Girl Scout cookies contain no preservatives, they can easily be frozen and used at any time. Buying a large quantity of cookies will reward you with sweet treats, and give you a sense of pride in knowing that you are helping your local Girl Scouts. You also can "pimp" your Girl Scout cookies, and make delicious treats and desserts that will satisfy almost anyone's taste buds. Turn your cookies into masterpieces with quick and innovative recipes that will impress your friends and family members.
