This delectable dessert features layers of chocolate chip cookies, rich white chocolate cream, Lotus and Nutella spread, and is ideal for sweet lovers.
Chocolate desserts are the best. There is no debate here. Nothing beats a rich and chocolatey dessert at the end of a meal. I’m sure you will agree with me on this one. It’s the mid-term break for my little boy and and it’s also Kuwait National Day here. We have a 9-day vacation. Everyone is excited here.
We planned a picnic with cousins tomorrow and my task is to make a dessert. I was certain that I would prepare something involving chocolate because the majority of crowd will be children. I simply came up with this recipe with little bit of inspiration from Pinterest.
I normally start with a recipe test and only then shoot a video if it turns out well. But this time, I was convinced that I wouldn’t go wrong with these components, so I attempted the video on the first go. And I’m glad I did because it turned out delicious. Because this dish is rather rich, I’m relieved that I won’t have to cook it again for the video. I am looking forward to taking this to the picnic tomorrow.
If you’re planning a party, this dessert is sure to impress everyone. Please give it a shot.
