Stomach Turning Combination
Wednesday, December 22nd, 2010 08:20 amUsually around the holidays I post yummy recipes. Today I'm going to post a disgusting one. Mom saw it on Good Morning America and decided to make it. Just hearing her describe it made my stomach turn. This horror is in the vein of Sandra Lee and her semi-homemade stuff, in fact, Sandra Lee was on the tv segment with her own semi-homemade recipe. But her thing actually sounded palatable!
What is this thing? Brownie Cheesecake Peppermint Bars. I like Brownies. I like cheesecake. I like peppermint! I do not like these bars! It's just a giant slab of store bought sugar cookie dough. On top of that you add brownie and cream cheese glop (brownies that you've crushed and mixed with cream cheese). Then you cover the whole thing with white chocolate peppermint bark. The result is a horrific clash of flavors. The store bought cookie taste rubbing elbows with a salty chocolaty cream cheese taste and then on top of that there's a hard layer of white chocolate and peppermint. Urgh. No thanks. Just eating two bites had my stomach in knots.
I don't know how all the reviews on these horrors are positive. Oh wait, they probably have some poor schlub sitting in front of a screen deleting all the comments about how disgusting they are. Well, as long as they don't have to actually eat these things. It's just a hot mess.
