While some nutritionists are rolling their eyes and protesting the amount of sugar, Registered Dietician Abby Sharp lets her kids eat dessert before veggies. And Taste of Home boasts the benefits of eating dessert for breakfast

"However, there is some evidence to suggest that eating dessert for breakfast could help stave off hunger for a good part of the day. According to a study from the Endocrine Society, eating a 600-calorie high-carb breakfast including a small dessert such as a sweet cookie or chocolate could help to improve weight loss."
