Ultimate Waffle Sundae!!! Peanut butter & Nutella sandwiched between two waffles, topped with loads of ice cream, whipped cream, nuts and a cherry. This is the Ultimate Waffle Sundae!

You guys.

This waffle sundae.

It’s been noticed. It’s been recognized. And it’s on PEOPLE.COM TODAY for Leslie Knope!! If you don’t know who Leslie Knope is . . I might forgive you. .  well, maybe not.  Leslie Knope is “Amy Poehler‘s over-achieving, lovable do-gooder on NBC’s Parks and Recreation.”

And she loves waffles. .  like, love likes them.

So, here’s the post on PEOPLE.COM!!! Read it!!! We’re celebrating and crying over today’s premiere of the series’ seventh and final season.

Ultimate Waffle Sundae! Peanut butter & Nutella sandwiched between two waffles, topped with loads of ice cream, whipped cream, nuts and a cherry. This is the Ultimate Waffle Sundae!

And forgive the photos, I shot this 2 years ago. But hey, she still got noticed. Hooray for WAFFLES!!!

If you’re looking for something impressive, crazy decadent and delicious, this is it! And this dessert is meant to be shared!!! Want to make this healthier? Make whole wheat waffles, use non-dairy ice cream or sorbet, use almond butter instead of the Nutella and top it with homemade coconut whipped cream!!! See, it’s possible!

DO IT!

Amy Poehler, Amy Poehler’s people, or Amy Poehler’s publicist: if you are reading this, I will happily come over and make waffles for you and the entire cast and crew. Any time. Open invitation. Just sayin’.

    Oh my goodness. This is AMAZING. Like, you basically are replacing Ann as Leslie’s best friend right now. And I’m a little bit jealous. I cannot even handle the awesomeness! I actually made a blogger friend ENTIRELY over Parks & Rec and she made Leslie Knope waffle cupcakes for when I was on my honeymoon.. how awesome right?! This thing is *epic*. Cannot even believe it’s the final season 🙁 But Chris Pratt has abs now so we’re off to bigger and better things, right?!
