The video is a cooking tutorial in which the host attempts to transform childhood snacks into a multi-layered dessert. The snacks used include Joe Louis, Gushers, Half Moons, and Fruit by the Foot. The host starts by trying to create a jelly dessert, but finds that the taste is not as good as they remember. They then move on to create a dessert with strawberry cookies, Joe Louis, and Fruit by the Foot.
The host uses a combination of these snacks to create a multi-layered dessert, similar to those seen in the Art of Chocolate. They start by making a strawberry mousse with marshmallow and cream, which they then combine with cookies and cream. They then layer this with a fruit compote made from rhubarb and strawberries, and a cookie crumble layer. The final layer is a non-baked chocolate cheesecake.
Throughout the process, the host encounters several challenges, such as the gelatin not blooming properly and the dessert not turning out as they expected. However, they manage to overcome these difficulties and successfully create the dessert. The host concludes by applying a mirror glaze to the dessert to give it a shiny, reflective finish.
