    That is so cool! My son is going to love the green! Will have to make these tonight! I have the 5 seed butter, which has sunflower seeds in it, will that still work to turn it green?

    nice cream sounds heavenly, please explain more! what is nice cream and how do i make it?

    • T1D Living January 15, 2020 at 3:25 pm - Reply

      It is heavenly! Nice cream is vegan ice cream. We make our own with bananas, a little bit of nut mylk, splash of vanilla, almond butter, and salt. Mix all together in your food processor. We spread nice cream in between two cookies, sandwich them, then freeze for about 30 min before eating. De-lish!
