You've done a good deed and purchased umpteen boxes of Girl Scout cookies. Now what? If you haven't already consumed them all straight from the box, Executive Chef Jason Koppinger of the Outrigger Keauhou Beach Resort in Hawaii has a suggestion: turn them into something else. Specifically, some fabulous new desserts. Koppinger's hotel regularly supports Girl Scout Troop #425 in Kona, Hawaii, on various educational, environmental and community activities. The relationship sparked Koppinger to create several new recipes, each one featuring a different Girl Scout cookie. |

6 ounces unsweetened chocolate 2 tablespoons Kona coffee 5 eggs, separated 1 cup caster (extra fine) sugar 1 cup heavy cream 8 ounces macadamia nut puree 6 tablespoons confectioner's sugar, plus extra for dusting whipped cream to serve 1 box (10 ounces) Girl Scout Thin Mint Cookies |

Pour mixture into prepared baking pan/sheet and spread to an even level. Bake for 20 minutes, remove from oven, and cover with a dish towel and leave to cool for several hours.
