Triple Decker Eggo Extravaganza

Tweet

My daughter loves the series Stranger Things and had asked to eat something from the show for her birthday -- the Triple Decker Eggo Extravaganza, which is Eggo waffles (they must be Eggo brand, or at least resemble them) layered with whipped cream and various candies. I toasted the waffles in the oven (8 at a time) to save some time, plus I cooked some sausage links at the same time on another rack (they had to eat something besides candy!) and had orange juice and milk as beverages. I found some cans of flavored whipped topping at the grocery store and thought they'd be fun with this. The kids layered chocolate nonpareils, M&Ms, Reece's Pieces, Swedish Fish, gummy bears, candy corn, Pop Rocks, and gummy bears between their waffles and used copious amounts of whipped cream... I tried not to think about all the sugar and vowed that they'd have plenty of vegetables at lunch. I had two waffles with almond butter and cherry/blueberry fruit spread, although I did put some of the pumpkin spice whipped topping on top of my coffee.
