Cooking with Hank – ice cream, Moon Pies, and regret

RICHLAND CENTER, Wis (WRCO Entertainment) – Welcome to cooking with Hank. Do you have the hunger? If you have an old Moon Pie and regret, Hank can feed you!

2:30 A.M. Hillbilly Dessert: “Toothless Moon Pie Delight”

Ingredients:

• 1 Moon Pie (any flavor, but banana is for professionals)
• 1 scoop vanilla ice cream (or melted if your freezer gave up)
• A hefty squirt of chocolate syrup
• Handful of crushed pretzels or cornflakes (optional crunch, not required if you’ve lost faith)
• One maraschino cherry (or a gummy bear with an identity crisis)

Instructions:

1. Place that Moon Pie on a plate like it’s fancy china.
2. Nuke it in the microwave for 10 seconds — just enough to make it soft but not explode (like your emotions).
3. Plop on the ice cream like a true culinary rebel.
4. Drown it in chocolate syrup. Don’t measure. This is chaos cooking.
5. Top it with whatever you found in the cereal box or under the couch.
6. Crown it with your cherry… or gummy… or nothing. It’s 2:30 a.m. Nobody’s judging.

Serving suggestion: Eat it with a spoon straight from the plate, while staring out the window like a cowboy in a country song.
