There is a lot going on in here, a chocolate oreo pate with a peanut butter filling and orange sauce and cream to top it all with. I omitted the orange sauce and cream, it felt like OTT. The pate was fantastic, like a fancy buckeye with crunchy oreos.

I was curious if there was supposed to be instructions for an orange sauce that is mentioned in the directions but only alluded to in the ingredients. Sounds deliciously interesting and I am planning to try it sometime. Thanks!
