Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 squares Graham crackers
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons Rainbow sprinkles
- 2 tablespoons Mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until it’s smooth and creamy.
Lay out 6 graham cracker squares on a flat surface to serve as the cookie bases.
Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture evenly on each of these graham cracker squares.
Optionally, sprinkle some mini chocolate chips on top of the cream cheese layer for extra texture and flavor.
Place the remaining 6 graham cracker squares on top to create sandwiches.
Pour the rainbow sprinkles into a shallow dish or bowl.
Carefully press the edges of each cookie sandwich into the sprinkles so they stick to the cream cheese filling, creating a colorful border.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for 15 minutes to let the filling firm up for a chilled treat.
