  1. I made this for a Christmas dessert using an alternating pattern of gingernuts & chocolate ripples, I didn't soak the biscuits & founjd that the ripple biscuits softened better than the gingernuts. This is a really nice spin on the ever popular chocolate ripple cake & I will make this again but will soak the gingernuts next time.
