I searched the internet for hours trying to find a recipe of my favorite 90’s snack called Dizzy Grizzlies. These snacks were Cinnamon Teddy Grahams with vanilla or chocolate frosting on the back and dipped in sprinkles. My mouth waters whenever I mention it. This was a snack that was super popular back when no one cared about how much sugar was in your kids’ sweets. Now here’s a remake of the super awesome Teddy Grahams snack from way back when…
I can’t believe how many people actually don’t know what Dizzy Grizzlies were! Here’s a commercial from 1996 to refresh your memory:
It was surely my favorite snack and I can’t stop thinking of them. I thought “Why not create my own easy version?” All you’ll need is:
1) Grab your cookies and spread frosting on the back in a thin layer.
2) Press the cookie (Frosting side down) into the Nonpareils and let rest (Sprinkle Side Up)
3) Eat it up!

September 22, 2016 at 2:07 pmI don't remember these, but I can certainly relate. I used to love Fruit Roll-Ups, but you just can't find them today.
