patgund'Unhealthiest Recipe Ever'
"A celebrity chef's recipe for Snickers Pie has been condemned as one of the unhealthiest ever.
Antony Worrall Thompson's creation combines five Snickers bars with mascarpone, eggs, sugar, soft cheese and puff pastry.
Each serving contains the equivalent of 22 teaspoons of fat and 11 teaspoons of sugar, the Food Commission said.
And the independent food watchdog calculates it contains more than 1,250 calories a slice."
