I picked up a pair of glasses from my local library so I can watch the eclipse on Monday afternoon safely. But, after all the hype, is that it? Glance up to the sky wearing a pair of paper glasses? I feel like there should be more!
How about a special snack? For today’s Friday field trip, I am sharing my eclipse snack idea…black and white cookies! Isn’t a classic New York black and white the perfect eclipse snack? I thought so!
I searched online for a recipe for the classic cookie and found many – I decided to go with a Gourmet Magazine recipe from February 2002.
Making the cookies makes the eclipse seem a little bit more like a celebration! Because, after all, don’t all good celebrations include good food?
My very first batch ever of black and white cookies was pretty successful! (My only advice is to avoid getting crumbs in the white frosting!) You still have time to make your own eclipse viewing snack! If not a black and white, how about making some whoopie pies?
Thanks for stopping by! Have a fabulous weekend and remember to take pleasure in simple things!
Whoopie pies in 2024! Happy eclipse viewing, Jackie
