To think this dessert was a bjt

We went to OH’s friend’s house last night for a meal. They went into the kitchen and brought out dessert. They had bitten the heads off hollow chocolate rabbits, filled them with Baileys, put squirty cream on top and were pretty pleased with themselves, let me tell you. I looked around for something else and they said that I’d reminded them that they’d forgotten something. I hoped it was a cheesecake but no, they came back with indoor sparklers which took a faff to light, then the cream melted and the sparklers melted the chocolate and I had a plate of mess.

OH and I are still confused about this. AIBU to think cheesecake would have been easier?

I can’t think about Boris Johnson’s testicles on a Sunday! 😳🤢……… now talk to me about Lemon Meringue and we’re in business!

P.s the dessert sounds grim but each to their own 😂

@DinaofCloud9

How do you know they actually bit the heads off? Surely it's more likely they just cut them?
Yes I think so. Think op is just making that bit up to make it seem worse

I have never heard of this type of pudding. It sounds completely revolting.

JennieLee · 23/01/2022 12:24

Anyone for apple crumble?

CaptainThe95thRifles · 23/01/2022 12:25

I suppose if the sparklers really were that hot, they'd have destroyed any covid particles on the slavered-over chocolate anyway so the cries of "won't someone think of the pandemic" are a bit misplaced.

(The sparklers weren't that hot, the heads were surely not literally bitten off...)

OhWhyNot · 23/01/2022 12:29

I would have been amused

I doubt the bite the heads off but sounds amusing

I would have eaten it they made an effort

@JennieLee

Anyone for apple crumble?
Will it be served inside a headless bunny covered in squirty cream?

If they were not enough to melt a choc reindeer into a puddle of choc, hoe much damage would it do to your hand??? Jeez, some people really like to up the drama 🙄
BliainNua · 23/01/2022 12:31

@CaptainThe95thRifles - I was agreeing with you by the way! Just realised it may look like I was criticising you.

Alonelonelylonersbadidea · 23/01/2022 12:33

You’re a rude bastard aren’t you OP?

Missey85 · 23/01/2022 12:34

These are yummy! Made them last easter 😊 you cut the bunny not bite it you sound like a very ungrateful guest and I wouldn't invite you again

MichaelAndEagle · 23/01/2022 12:36

I think they sound nice. Obviously the heads weren't really bitten off.
Not a massive fan of squirty cream but still would have ate them and certainly not looked around for a dessert more suited to my tastes!
I expect the heads were kept for the hosts to eat after the guests went home!

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 23/01/2022 12:40

Wouldn't be high on my list of top desserts, but it must have been a talking point, given the length of this thread!

To think this dessert was a bjt
Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 23/01/2022 12:41

PS That picture looks like a boot to me, not a reindeer.

RavenclawDiadem · 23/01/2022 12:45

As a dessert in someone’s house it’s fine. I quite like the Lindt chocolate rabbits. It’s really rude to be looking for something else instead though.

Purplecatshopaholic · 23/01/2022 12:50

I know I am not totally with it @100problems, and I blame the Baileys Wink, but do we still not know what bjt means…? Only reason I am still here….

RavenclawDiadem · 23/01/2022 12:54

Did she mean “this dessert is a BIT” and mistyped? Leaving posters to complete the sentence? 🤷‍♀️

No worries, I do like a bit of drama Grin

liveforsummer · 23/01/2022 13:02

I'd prefer a glass of baileys to a proper desert so a bit of added chocolate would be fine too. Of course they didn't BITE the heads of ffs 😆

7eleven · 23/01/2022 13:03

Horrible, bitchy OP. I bet you moaned about this all the way home and your OH is probably appalled. How rude.

GloriaSicTransitMundi · 23/01/2022 13:07

@ChargingBuck

Tonight, I am treating pals to dinner at my gaff.

In a splendid tableside presentation, I will be biting the heads off live rabbits, flambee'ing them ostentatiously in baileys, sticking a sparkler up each fundament*, & serving on a bed of cream.

Would you care to join us, OP?

  • rabbit fundaments, not guests. Although who knows where the heady evening may take us?
Can I come please? Grin
OverByYer · 23/01/2022 13:08

urgh sounds gross

rooarsome · 23/01/2022 13:13

Will Op ever be back to clarify if the heads actually were bitten off?

GloriaSicTransitMundi · 23/01/2022 13:22

I can’t think about Boris Johnson’s testicles on a Sunday! 😳🤢

Any day of the week!

Catflapkitkat · 23/01/2022 13:45

That is rank. I would have judges and thought less of them for that shocker.

What was the rat of the dinner like?
