Healthy Magnum Egos

James McLoughlin JAMES MCLOUGHLIN

According to its website, Magnum Egos are described as nothing but pure decadence. Which we would have to agree with. So of course, we needed to take this treat and make it guilt free. The ice cream may have a slight banana taste but I promise the caramel is spot on and the chocolate has its cracking factor. This is one of those desserts that is simple to make but does require some patients as you allow the different layers to set. I promise it is well worth it, though.
