For me, Christmas is more than giving gifts. It is a time for family to come together and eat great food. This year, I was asked to bring a dessert to our family’s get-together. So I whipped up something super tasty. Instead of your regular “Chocolate Delight”, I made “Oreo Delight” at the request of my husband, Mike. Here’s a picture, from start to finish!
