Since it was just little ol’ me around the house this week, I didn’t want to make a huge torte and let it go to waste. Thus, you see my little tortelette… I made two.
And, instead of raspberry ice cream, I used Java Chip! It was soooo yummy, too!! This is definitely a must-try… tasty and easy-peasy!! Looks like a giant Reese’s PB Cup, huh??
