Ah, I remember that was my pet line at one point, until someone played a single black line up to draw and I couldn't find any improvement.
Something like:
1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Ng5 d5 5. exd5 Nxd5 6. Nxf7 Kxf7 7. Qf3+ Ke6 8. Nc3 Ncb4 9. Bb3 c6 10. a3 Na6 11. Nxd5 cxd5 12. d4 Be7 (with the idea of Rf8).
I actually found more success with the previously discussed Lolli, my opponents had a harder time finding the right moves OTB.
