DIY Disney Dessert Recipes – Chocolate, Chocolate, And More CHOCOLATE!

Walt Disney World is known for its Theme Parks, Rides and attractions, and world class service. One thing you might not know about them is that they have some of the BEST FOOD ON THE PLANET! Seriously- anything you can think of, they serve it – from sushi to salads to sundaes – and everything in between! One thing they really shine in is the world of chocolate desserts – decadent, mouth-watering treats that will satisfy any and all chocolate fanatics out there. Used to be that the only way to get your hands (and mouths!) on these desserts was to actually go to Disney – but now all you have to do is roll up your sleeves, put on an apron, and get baking with these DIY Disney Chocolate Desserts:

You can find these cheesecake brownies at the Boardwalk Bakery at Disney’s Boardwalk Resort. Gooey, chocolate-y, tangy cheesecake-y – these have it all! And you can recreate these in your own kitchen with this simple recipe:

If cheesecake isn’t your thing, then maybe you’re more of a fan of the popular (and delicious!) chocolate/peanut butter combo? If so, you will definitely want to try your hand at this chocolate peanut butter cupcake recipe (these delectable treats are found at the Starring Rolls Café at Disney’s Hollywood Studios)

Ok, so we’ve got cupcakes, cheesecake brownies, what’s missing? Oh yes – COOKIES – can never have enough cookies – and these Gourmet Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies that can be found over at the Main Street Bakery are crisp on the outside and fudgy and gooey (from the chocolate chunks yum!) on the inside. Oh, and they are easy to make, so that’s a plus too!

To wash it all down, you can whip up a batch of these Oreo Milkshakes – which are served up daily at the Sci-Fi Dine In Theater in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Yum!

It may not be the same as spending the evening enjoying dessert and watching the Wishes fireworks show over at the Magic Kingdom, but these Chocolate DIY Disney recipes are amazing, and I hope they inspire you to host your own Disney Dessert Party!
