Thanks much for this GREAT TASTING FROZEN DESSERT! Even though it's cold outside right now, we enjoy ice cream even in the winter, & this 'crunch' is a great alternative, for sure! I used oreos with vanilla cream filling this time, but might just use those with the chocolate filling next time! VERY, VERY NICE! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Please Review My Recipe]
