We’ve often relied on Burger Beast for info on the latest and greatest burger-related food trucks in Miami and South Florida.  They clued us in on the Grill Master Cafe, Mamita Linda and Ms. Cheezious, among others.

So it was natural when Coolhaus expanded to Miami, they would hook up with Burger Beast, a local legend.  Coolhaus and BB teamed up to create a new ice cream sandwich that best represented the Burger Beast aesthetic.

The Burger Beast Ice Cream Sandwich has Potato Chip & Skor Bar Cookies sandwiching a slab of Brown Butter Candied Bacon Ice Cream. To those who have tried it, the sandwich is as divine as it sounds.

And the best part?  You can get one too!  Click through to find out how.

We were told the Burger Beast would be available after the New Year at all the Coolhaus trucks in Austin, Los Angeles and New York, as well as the store in Culver City, California.

You can find Coolhaus here:

If you’re in South Florida and want recommendations for where to find the best burgers and/or food trucks, the Burger Beast website is here.  I believe he is going to L.A. too at the end of February.

To help celebrate the holidays, Sweetery has come out with a line of winter and holiday-themed cookies for you to enjoy.

Bring a box to your office and your co-workers will love you.

Bring a box home for the holidays and your family will love you even more.

They have cookies decorated to look like ornaments, candy canes, Christmas trees, gift boxes, snowflakes, and our favorite – penguins.  Gotta love the polka dot bowtie!

You can find the Sweetery NYC truck here on twitter or on our Mobile Munchies twitter feed.

The Treats Truck is doing a special promotion with McCormick spices and extracts, and Kim created 3 new holiday-themed treats using McCormick spices and extracts. There are several components to this promotion, including the McCormick Big Cookie Share where you can customize your own cookies, and a free cookie giveaway that was at the Treats Truck last Friday.

Since the Treats Truck will be selling these cookies during the holiday season, we decided to do a taste testing of the new cookies so you can decide for yourself which one(s) you want.  We know it’s a tough job, but someone has to do it.

The first new treat we tried was the Little Peppermint Crispy Rice Square (bottom in photo).  This was a rice krispie square with two big additions – tiny pieces of peppermint candy and white chocolate chips.

Even though the peppermint pieces were tiny, they added a fairly strong mint flavor, although there could have been McCormick’s mint extract added too.  The peppermint flavor was tempered a bit by the white chocolate chips.  Yum!

Next up was the Sugar Cookie Thumbprint with a Spiced Jam Center (top left in photo).  We often make sugar cookies in our house around the holidays, but never put jam in the center.  There were several choices of jam available, including strawberry, blackberry and raspberry.

We got strawberry, and it was delicious.  Not to get too far ahead of ourselves, but this was my personal favorite of the new treats.  The sugar cookie was buttery, and the spiced strawberry jam was phenomenal.  Double yum on this one!

The last cookie was also the biggest – a Nutty Oatmeal Ginger Cookie Sandwich.  By definition it had two (oatmeal) cookies with a sweet ginger buttercream filling.  This cookie had some cinnamon and nutmeg going on, and there were chopped pecans in the cookies too.  If you like nuts, this treat had plenty.  The sweet filling also had ginger and cinnamon.  Very tasty!

You can find the Treats Truck on twitter here, or on our Mobile Munchies twitter feed.

If you want to get into the holiday spirit, there’s no better way than with these new holiday cookies from the Treats Truck – or The Treats Truck Baking Book, which makes a great gift for anyone you know who enjoys baking.

Now you can make your own Coolhaus ice cream sandwiches, cookies and hot chocolate right in the comfort of your own home.

Please welcome the Coolhaus Mason Jar to the world.

Fill it up with your favorite Coolhaus ice cream, toss in a dozen cookies and 4 edible wrappers, and you have your very own Coolhaus sandwich-making kit for $25.  And when you are done, take it back to the truck or cart for a refill and get $1 off the normal pint price of $12.

If you have a thing for mason jars, but want something else for those cold winter days, you can have the jar filled with hot chocolate powder for $12.  You can even get the mason jar by itself for $5 – but what fun would that be?

The other exciting news from Coolhaus is that you can now bake your own cookies at home using their cookie dough.  It costs $12 for a roll that makes 12 cookies.  Available flavors include: Chocolate Chip Cookie, Double Chocolate Chip Cookie, Peanut Butter Cookie, Flap Jack Cookie, Cranberry Orange Oatmeal Cookie, Oatmeal Raisin Cookie and Snickerdoodle Cookie. (FYI, the cookie dough is not available until Friday.)

Looks like Coolhaus has figured out a few ways to get you through the winter months, while still enjoying their wonderful treats.

There still time to get FREE goodies from Sweetery and Lord & Taylor to celebrate the opening of the 2011 Holiday Windows tonight at Lord & Taylor’s at 5:30pm.
