Cookie Salad

This recipe changed my life ...

I made this as the first item I ever brought to a potluck/dinner party. I felt so mature and fancy, looking at recipes, and shopping by myself. I was 20, a sophomore in college, and the student newspaper I was an editor at was hosting a dinner celebration, and we were each asked to contribute to the meal.

While this particular recipe isn't complex, or mind-blowing, or really, anything I hardly serve anymore, it sure catapulted me into the culinary world to which I have fallen in love with.

Someday, you'll find your very own Cookie Salad recipe.

1 C. buttermilk
3 oz. instant vanilla pudding
8oz. Cool Whip, thawed
1 can mandarin oranges, drained
1 can pineapple, drained
1/2 bag mini marshmallows
1 package E.L. Fudge Striped Cookies, broken up

Mix together buttermilk, pudding, and Cool Whip; beat until smooth.
Fold in remaining ingredients.

Chill for a hour before serving.
