APPLEBEE’S MUD SLIDE

About

Brenda Gantt

I am a self-taught cook. I started cooking around 18 years old. I stood in the kitchen and watched my mother, who was my biggest inspiration at the time, cook.

MENU DESCRIPTION: “Bury your sweet tooth with smooth Kahlua, creamy vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and rich Hershey’s chocolate syrup.” Sure, there’s a little Kahlua in there, but this famous Applebee’s drink is more dessert than cocktail, really And the presentation will make you look like a pro because you spiral the chocolate syrup around the inside the glass before adding the drink. It looks cool and it’s easy to do … even after you’ve had a couple. Grab a straw and prepare to crave another when this one’s gone. No wonder this drink also comes in a larger size.

MAKES 1 DRINK

 

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream
  • 2 ounces Kahlua coffee liqueur
  • Hershey’s chocolate syrup (in a squirt bottle)
  • canned whipped cream

 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Measure 2 cups of ice cream into your blender. Add the Kahlua and blend until smooth.
  2. Prepare a 16-ounce wine glass by swirling chocolate syrup around the inside of the glass. Hold the wine glass by the stem with one hand and twirl the wine glass as you squeeze the chocolate. Slowly move the chocolate up toward the rim of the glass so that the chocolate makes a continuous spiral around the inside of the glass.
  3. Pour the drink from the blender into the glass. Add a pile of whipped cream to the top of the drink and drizzle additional chocolate syrup over the whipped cream. Add a straw and serve.
