New York City's Aunt Jake's may be known for its pasta, but recently the restaurant began making headlines for an outrageous dessert called the Julian Sundae. However, if you want to sample this tasty treat, you'll need to bring some friends to help you finish it.

The Julian Sundae is a supersized ice cream treat that is big enough for a crowd to share. The chefs start with a glass goblet that is coated in a ring of vanilla icing and crushed Oreo cookies. A thick bubble waffle is then added to the glass along with four scoops of chocolate ice cream, a pile of whipped cream, and a handful of Fruity Pebbles cereal. Oh, and the whole thing is topped with chocolate syrup for good measure.

With the buzz surrounding the Julian Sundae, it seems that supersized desserts are just as popular as ever.
