Old Faithful Club Dessert & Cordial Offerings

Within a few minutes of the Old Faithful Club lounge reopening with their Dessert & Cordial offerings I was there to take photos. However, I did make a stop along the way from my room to take in the beautiful lobby view down below…

But then I got down to the business of photographing the food before the crowd descended upon it. My first target was to see what kind of cobbler they had tonight…

I was disappointed to see that it was Apple Cobbler, as I was hoping that they would again have the delicious Strawberry-Peach Cobbler that they had the last time I was here…

Next up were the cookies, both sugar…

…and chocolate chip.

Then there were Lemon Bars…

…and of course, Magic Bars.

For those of you who have never had a Magic Bar (which, by the way, are available for purchase at the Wilderness Lodge’s quick service restaurant, Roaring Fork), these bars have a crust of graham cracker crumbs with sweetened condensed milk, which is then topped with a mixture of sweetened coconut, both butterscotch and chocolate chips, chopped pecans and multi-colored confetti candy. All of this makes for a gooey, deliciously sweet dessert. Oh, and I should add that prior to tasting these for the first time during my last CL stay, I didn’t think I would like them because I generally don’t care for desserts with shredded coconut (I think it’s a texture thing). But when the opportunity arose to try it without buying a much larger size bar at Roaring Fork, I couldn’t resist the temptation. And to my surprise, I liked it…both last time and this time.

However, though I thoroughly enjoyed the Magic Bar, my favorite dessert of those which were offered this time at the OFC lounge was the S’mores Tarts…

These tarts had a graham cracker crust, a chocolate pudding-like filling, and were topped with toasted mini-marshmallows. Yum!

As for the cordials offered, there were four…

They also had a variety of non-alcoholic beverages like coffee, milk, and soda.

So I made my choices and took them back to my room to enjoy…

In the glass was Kahlua and cream, which is one of favorites.

Before too long it was time to go out to my balcony to watch the Magic Kingdom fireworks, which I believe was HalloWishes that night…

Though the view and my photos of the fireworks are not that great, the convenience of seeing them from the balcony of my room more than made up for that. :thumbsup2
