Okay, first, I have only been to Applebee’s once.

And I have never eaten this dessert there. I do not know how this at-home version compares.

My son bought me this cookbook. This is the recipe he wanted to try out. For Mother’s Day. Which is very sweet.

I followed the recipe. Actually, my kids followed the recipe. I just supervised.

We did not make the chocolate sauce in the recipe. I hoard these little jars. Why mess with perfection?

Even though it was Mother’s Day, I still could not indulge all of the way. I tried to find the calories for this dessert. Applebee’s website states this dessert is 980 calories.

Say what?!

Chocolate has calories?

I had half of a serving. Meaning it took up almost half of a full day’s worth of Weight Watcher’s points.

But, mmmmmmm…

Was it worth it?

OH YEAH…….
