Dirt Cake (Kansas)

Crista sent us a fabulous recipe for Dirt Cake, and we knew it would only be a matter of time before we tried it. You can read her full recipe on the Kansas page: http://www.writingtotheworld.com/kansas.html

We couldn't get all the ingredients, so we kind of muddled stuff together. We used
- a bag of oreo cookies
- some toffee yoghurt
- some cream cheese
- some cocoa powder
- a bag of gummy worms

We mashed up the cookies and kept some pieces back, then we mixed the yoghurt, cream cheese and cocoa powder. Then we mixed it all together, filled it in a clean flower pot and crumbled the remaining oreo cookies on top. We artfully arranged the gummy worms and plopped in the next best thing to a flower  we could find. It's super-yummy, but very, very rich - we'd put some crushed tin foil in the bottom, because we figured our flower pot was quite big :).

Toby has reached his fourth full ShelterBox, so we thought we would post here to celebrate and to say "Thank you" to everybody who has helped him achieve this goal. We never thought, when he started, that donations would come from nearly all continents, and we are truly grateful to everybody who made this project possible - by becoming a letter-writing partner, helping to find a partner, being part of our "little world" on Facebook, sharing ideas, recipes, etc., and, of course, donating - thank you" http://www.justgiving.com/writingtotheworld
