25 Delicious Ways You Can Actually Eat Dessert For Breakfast

by Kaylin Pound

I've always been a diehard breakfast fan.

In fact, breakfast is probably the only reason I get out of bed in the morning instead of hitting the snooze button until it's a socially acceptable time to drink wine.

Then again, how can you not love this almighty morning meal?

Aside from being downright delicious, breakfast is the only meal of the day that highly encourages you watch cartoons in your underwear while you stuff your face with all sorts of heavenly treats.

If you happen to be someone who likes to stay on the sweeter side of the breakfast food spectrum instead of suffering through a kale smoothie or a boring bowl of oatmeal, I have some good news for you.

In one sweet study, researchers from Tel Aviv University discovered eating dessert as part of a 600-calorie breakfast that includes proteins and carbs can actually help you lose weight.

So, I guess that means you can have your cake, and eat it for breakfast, too.

However, if your idea of a little morning indulgence includes adding chocolate chips to your pancakes or topping your toast with Nutella, you've been doing the whole dessert for breakfast thing like a damn amateur.

There are tons of ways to create candy-coated renditions of your favorite breakfast foods, so we set out to find a bunch of dessert recipes that will make getting out of bed in the morning totally worth it.
