When I saw this recipe, I knew it was a must try! As I read through the recipe, I couldn't help but notice this is really three desserts in one. This is truly one of those recipes that’s causing our society to be overweight and unhealthy. So what did I do but bookmark it and then a few weeks later, make it. I did only eat one small piece. I sent the rest to work with my husband so he could share this treat for “food day”. For what it’s worth, I did omit the caramel layer, which I am guessing reduced the calories from 2 zillion to maybe just a zillion and a half. If you’re okay with calorie laden, unhealthy desserts, give this one a try. It’s decadent and delicious.
