This is one of the easiest and tastiest recipes ever!!! The flavours from the dessert is fantastic, but i couldn't eat it all to myself, wow, i dont know how many calories, but hey you only live once!! If you havent already tried this one, go do it now. Its best left for a while in the fridge to set properly, and if you really like a treat use an orange chocolate with the crunchy bits in for extra texture.... yummy Big Grin
