"dessinner" sounds better than "dinnert"

LOL!! Desinner = someone having a dessert made on the theme of one of the
7 Deadly Sins :-)

"dinnert" sounds lower in calories.

Where'dja get the recipe? Was it billed as a dessert or what?

Nice that you saved a dish or bowl from having to be washed. Reminds
me of the old flame who used to cook up a Kraft Italian boxed dinner
and eat it right from the pan with a @$#% teaspoon.

I have eaten sandwich right off the cutting board. : ))

Nothing wrong with having a few less dishes and/or eating implements to
wash IMHO - but I think I'd still pass on one of those boxed dinners <lol>

No recipe - we had something similar in Greece about, oh, let's see, 20
years ago. It was Greek (duh) yogurt, walnuts, and honey. We've made
similar versions since, e.g., greek yogurt and almonds and maple syrup,
vanilla yogurt instead of unflavored Greek, etc. Basically a soft dairy
product like yogurt or ricotta, some sort of sweetener like honey or
maple syrup, and nuts of whatever kind you have or whatever kind you
like.

I honestly don't remember if it was billed as dessert.
