To think this dessert was a bjt

[DogDramas]

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’m intrigued you assumed they bit the heads off. You know them and we don’t - do they seem like they’d serve their guests something they’d had in their mouths?!

I don't believe for a second they actually bit the heads off. I mean come on.

@PriamFarrl

I presume they bjt the heads off, how else would you do it?

With a knife.
Why would you assume they bit them off.

You didn't spot the deliberate typo? She's joking

Oh I spotted the typo.

😈

Your first thought was they bit them off?? What?!

My first thought is always sabrage, dahlings -- slicing off the top of a bottle of champagne with a sword.

Squirty cream? Yuck

Sounds amazing! I'd prefer that over cheesecake 😋

What's not to like! Other than if they actually BIT the heads off then that's gross. It's just a bit of fun, really not something to get out of shape about.

They probably didn't realise they'd invited the fun police for dinner.

@MrsToothyBitch

Well I don't like cheesecake (at least, not the base) so I'd much rather have a baileys bunny. Surely they hadn't bitten the heads off! Sounds like you were a bit rude actually OP. Or at least a bit cheesecake centric.

Perhaps the hosts were bored of cheesecake? I'm quite tempted to try these now. Might see if I can get a hoarde of different Lindt mammals and use the South Park Christmas Critters for inspo.

Wonder how much baileys you could fit in those mini lindt bunnies at easter? Although they would fall over.........could maybe syringe it in..... 🤔

I know!!!! It just would have made the thread a million times better if it was true.

Did they eat the heads, or did they spit them out and give them to you to eat?

A hot knife would melt the chocolate at the cutting point without breaking the body

@RavenclawDiadem

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.

No it's not! How is a chocolate bunny and a drink of Baileys a pudding?

What if your guests don't like Baileys - are they just served a Lindt bunny, or maybe a Double Decker or a Cadburys creme egg? Fair enough if you haven't planned a pudding, just say so and offer chocolate after the meal if you want to, but don't try and pass it of as a pudding.

What if your guests don't like Baileys

What if you serve cheesecake and your guests don't like cheesecake?

Its a perfectly fine dessert at dinner at someone's house.

Love the reference to ‘carcass’!

It's a novelty chocolate -not a dessert.

I guessing the folks who are taking serious issue have no friends and are never invited to dinner parties, thr rest of us know it’s about spending time together as friends and what’s served is not relevant L

It wasn’t a dinner party, it was an informal meal. We take it in turns to host each other. And we all like cheesecake.

Do you not think it's possible that they didn't think having cheesecake was some kind of unspoken rule? Having it often doesn't mean you have to have it every time.

I think it's quite obvious what's happened here. Like many of us, no doubt, they probably saw the advert where people make this exact dessert, thought "oo that looks fun, we should try that when we have people over", and then they did, thinking little of the fact that you've often had cheesecake in the past. Lots of people would have liked it, you didn't, but it shouldn't really be a problem for you, you surely weren't there for the promise of cheesecake? You'd eaten dinner already, would you have been bothered if they'd not bothered with dessert at all?

Not gonna lie, I'd smash that.

You sound like hard work though. If you missed the cheesecake that much why not stop off at the supermarket on the way home 🤣

Well, next time you are going to have to go all out for desert and make something really crazy!

Cute! I would have been delighted, even if it melted into an inedible mess.

As long as the bunny ears were actually chopped and not bitten off.

meatshake. 'Not gonna lie, I'd smash that'

I know the clue is in your username, but boasting you'd 'smash that' crime against tastebuds tells me you should take a long hard look at your life decisions.

Cheesecake rules OK

The only problem with this after dinner treat and this story is that I am in possession of Baileys and some surprisingly decent squirty cream, but have no hollow chocolates of any shape to behead. I even found some old sparklers yesterday when I was cleaning out a cabinet, though pyrotechnics hardly seem necessary.
