    I made it with vanilla ice cream and I thought it was great. Considering that 12 oz of Guinness is only about a hundred calories I have to believe that the nutrition info on this recipe is wrong...

    I tried this one with Pralines & Cream rather than chocolate ice cream (necessity is the mother of improvisation) but I'd recommend using an ice cream without little chunks of nut and caramel.
