  1. This were OK but they where lacking something. There needs to be a "surprise' in the middle, I think (perhaps a small ball of raspberry sorbet inside the bigger chocolate ball). Having said that, they are incredibly easy to make.
     
  2. Outstanding recipe. I made these a week before I was to serve them and everyone loved them. I forgot to buy the raspberries so I used strawberry sauce recipe # 161504 instead. This is a great dessert that can be made ahead of time. There are a number of steps in making the dessert, but each one is very simple. I would recommend this to anyone. Thanks for a crowd pleasing recipe.
     
  3. Man!!! That sounds good ur making me hungary!!! And it's only 5!!!
     
  4. Made these for my Bunco group - what a success they were! Placed them on little dessert plates and pour the sauce over them - no one could believe how easy they were! Definitely plan on making these again.
     
  5. Wonderful crowd pleaser - and incredibly easy! To make the cookie crumbs, I put some cookies in a zip-lock back and then mashed them with the bottom of a jar. I don't have an ice-cream scoop but I pressed ice-cream into little ramekins to get it into shape... I'm sure there are endless ways you can personalize this recipe.
