The annual Cookies With Class last Monday brought area chefs to Seekonk’s Johnson & Wales Inn for a competition of creating desserts with Girl Scout cookies. Their efforts helped raise $35,000 for the Girl Scouts of Rhode Island.
Some 75 guests observed the judges — Channel 10’s chef Frank Terranova, Elsie Foy of Aunt Carrie’s Restaurant in Narragansett and Garrison Confections’ Andrew Shotts — determine the winners. The judges used their taste buds to decide that the Waterman Grille’s peanut butter cookie cake was worthy of the award for the best use of Girl Scout cookies.
The 1149 Restaurant in Warwick netted best overall dessert with its salute to the Thin Mint; Twist on Angell in Providence received the people’s choice award with its torte of Coconut Delites.
