Notes

You can also pour a layer of chocolate ganache over the filling and leave it to set. But the Oreo crust and the filling were rich and chocolaty enough for us.

Food for Soul

The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. – Psalm 34:18

Whatever your cross, whatever your pain,
There will always be sunshine after the rain
Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall,
But God’s always ready to answer your call

He knows every heartache, sees every tear,
A word from His lips can calm every fear
Your sorrows may linger throughout the night,
But suddenly vanish at dawn’s early light

The Savior is waiting somewhere above,
To give you His grace and send you His love
Whatever your cross, whatever your pain,
God always sends rainbows after the rain.

God is with you, my friend!!
