Inspired by the widely acclaimed Girl Scout™ cookie, this decadent poke cake is the dessert to bring when everyone else is bringing cookies to the holidays. If the chocolaty mint flavor wasn’t enough to convince you, there are loads of chopped mint cookies on top so you can still get your cookie fix.
