Why Are We NOT Talking About This Snack???


Hey there, Disney Fans!!! It's me, Jenn... back from quarantine! My Orlando-based family and I have spent the last 14 months in a pretty strict lock-down, due to my and my son's vulnerability to COVID. It's been a weird year. That doesn't even cover it. It's been downright BIZARRE, but it is so nice to start to see a light at the end of the tunnel, as more of our country gets vaccinated. 

We chose to give up our Disney Annual Passes back in May of 2020, because we knew we wouldn't feel safe being in the parks. Man, did we miss Disney, though! We would even occasionally drive onto property just to see those red, purple and teal directional signs, the naked monorail beam, or the still Tower of Terror billboard on World Drive. 

So what was the first thing we did when The Hubs and I were fully vaccinated??? Get our Annual Passes back, of course! We have been back in the parks and active for about the past 3 weeks and we have been having so much fun appreciating all of the magic that we were missing. And of course we had been missing the snacks! We are Disney Foodies and we couldn't wait to get our hands on some cupcakes, popcorn buckets and new eats. 

So, what I want to know, friends, is WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME ABOUT THIS AMAZING COOKIE??? Over at Rosie's All American in Disney's Hollywood Studios, there's this incredible dessert on the menu that is worth a special trip to the park. It's called the Snacking Sandwich Cookie, but that name doesn't do it much justice. It makes it sound like any old ordinary cookie that you could snack on, right? Maybe like a big Oreo or something? Nope. Not at all. A more appropriate name would be "The Sweet 'n' Salty Yummy Chewy Crunchy Sandwich of Goodness". Probably not easy to put on the menu board though, so I'll forgive the name, but let's get down to what it really is. 

This large cookie sandwich starts with two buttery, soft, thin shortbread cookies, that are made with WHAT???? Crushed potato chips and pretzels! For serious! The result is this slightly salty, but perfectly sweet cushion around the sandwich. What is it cushioning, you ask? A huge, chewy and pillowy-soft, house-made vanilla marshmallow. I know! But it gets even better! The square is then partially dipped in dark, creamy chocolate and topped off with more chips and pretzels, and some sea salt for good measure. This bad-boy is a snacker's dream come true! Sweet, salty, chewy, gooey, crispy, creamy, crunchy, soft... it ticks all of the boxes! And it's not a bad value at all! For $4.99 this snack could easily be shared, but you likely won't want to! You've got to check this out! It's sure to become a new Disney Foodie cult favorite!

I hope you get a chance to try it for yourself really soon! In the meantime, stay safe, stay healthy and I'll be in the parks, hunting down all of the best treats, attractions, tips and advice for you! Until next time, Disney Friends... have a Magical Week!!!


Jenn is an Orlando local, with Disney as her playground! You can find her in the parks with her Hubs and Kiddos almost any day, and she's happy to report all her favorite eats and pics with us all.

Cruising with a Baby: A Complete Guide

You took a baby on a cruise!? Yep, and I'd do it again knowing what I know now. So, say goodbye to months of research - Everything you need to know is here!! One of the biggest challenges of traveling with a baby is planning what you need to bring. I wanted to share what worked for us, and hopefully help others who are planning their cruise! Remember, babies can only cruise after their 6-month birthday on sailings from the U.S. If you are going transatlantic, or have more than three days out at sea, they must be 12 months old by the first day of your cruise. Pre-Cruise   We flew to the cruise port, and I couldn’t bring all the food and snacks I needed, so I placed an Instacart order for pick up near the port. I chose Publix in Cocoa Beach which is a few miles from Port Canaveral. I placed the order a few days before we left home, and set the pickup time to 11:00 a.m. I ordered formula, a box of diapers, swim diapers, bottle brush, dish soap, baby food, and baby snacks. I also broug

The Villas at the Disneyland Hotel Review

I love staying at the Disneyland Hotel so when I got the opportunity to stay at the new Villas at the Disneyland Hotel during opening weekend, I couldn’t pass it up. Because it was opening weekend, we were greeted in the entrance way of the lobby with balloons and many photo opportunities. When we arrived, there was a mural of the Haunted Mansion. I love how the seats in the main lobby were designed like the teacups in the parks. You can check in using the Disneyland app, drop your bags with bell services and head into the parks or use the amenities why you wait until your room is ready. When your room is ready, the resort will send you a text and you can use the Disneyland app on your mobile device to unlock the room. We dropped off our bags and went straight to the parks. We received a text around 1PM that our room was ready. In the new Discovery Tower (the Villas), you'll find that the lobby is very spacious with many places to sit while you read or wait for your family. Th

Complete Guide to Disney's Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point

Disney's new Bahamian island destination, Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point is a pristine, secluded paradise reserved exclusively for Disney Cruise Line guests. The cruise port is located on the island of Eleuthera (pronounced uh-loo-tr-uh) at it's southern tip, amidst a nature preserve called Lighthouse Point. Far from any towns, Lookout Cay feels like a tropical oasis that is separated from the outside world by mangrove forests. The landscaping is gorgeous with flowers like plumerias, and tall swaying palm trees. Whether you want to just kick back and relax or go for a thrilling banana boat ride, this port has something for everyone. There are family friendly areas as well as those reserved specifically for adults.
