For Gabriella's birthday I wanted to prepare something that was reminiscent of the chocolate covered Mickey Ice Creams from the park.

I thought of Rice Krispy Treats, but I would some vanilla bean into it.  Ok, ok, no I didn't make the marshmallows.  Yes, I know how to make them, yes I know they are easy to do---but with everything else I had to do for the party, plus be a mom and work on my Master's degree class, where there is a huge assignment do every week!  Forget it, I am buying…

My mom made these last week.  She kept telling me how good they were and that they vanished in her house within two days!  When my mom made these, she peeled the lemons using a vegetable peeler and threw the zest into a food processor to have it chopped fine.  For me, I used my microplane, as the kids were asleep and the house was quiet.  However, I think that when I do make these again with the girls awake, I may try her trick!  Thanks Mom!!
