Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England held their 7th annual Cookies & Cocktails fundraising event at the Crowne Plaza in Warwick on March 9th. Chefs from seven local restaurants:  Hemenway's, Boat House, Res American Bistro, Ellie's, Safehouse, Barnaby's Public House and Crepe Corner created special desserts using Girl Scout cookies right out of the box.  Barnaby's Public House created Lemonade Delight.  The Boat House created Caramel deLites S'mores Pop. Choco Chips Crème Brulee was created by Crepe Corner while Ellie's created a Peanut Waldorf Salad and Peanut Butter filled Paris-Brest.  Hemenway's created the Adventure Bar while Res American Bistro created Espresso Mousse Torte with candied Lemon and Marshmallow Meringue. Last but not least, the Safehouse created Toast-Yay! Olive Oil Cake.  All of the desserts were absolutely delicious!

Mario Hilario, NBC 10 news anchor, was the emcee for the evening and Chef Frank Terranova, host of Cooking With Class, a daily channel 10 television segment on NBC 10, demonstrated a cooking class.  East Providence Girl Scout  Troop 117 members Angelina Araujo, Veronica Nelson and Morgan Perry were his sous chefs.
