2010-10-27 [Kaimee]: Unfortunately we've found this recipe and image at http://www.hersheys.com/recipes/recipes/detail.asp?id=6124 and so we cannot feature it in the Herald. If you have your own adaption of this recipe we can consider it :)

2010-10-28 [Eyden13]: I got the picture there but my mom gave me the recipe years ago. uhgh. Okay I'll go back to square one and do a bit more research before. Sorry about that

2010-10-28 [Kaimee]: Hmm, that's a shame. It's word for word exactly the same as the recipe on the website, and is pretty much a "trademark" recipe - like something that specifically requires Oreo cookies - so we really can't use this one :P
