My weakness is tiramisu, it's so frickin good. Hook me up with a piece of that and I'm in heaven.

But what about you, what dessert item really moves your meter?

C'mon, you can't ask us to pick just one. Sometimes you feel like something creamy, sometimes you want crunchy, at times even fruity.

Actually, it's cheesecake. This week. Because my wife has banned it from the house.

    I agree with your wife. No cheesecake in the house.

    ....also, I don't like cheesecake.

    When people eat cereal, there's generally one debate. Milk first, or cereal first?

    Would it interest you to know that I don't like milk on my cereal AT ALL? No milk please!

    Or that with the exception of corn, I eat all my vegitables raw only?

    Or that I don't like dark chocolate?

    I'm trying to think of other things people think is crazy that I don't like.......

    OH! Mac and Cheese.

    I also find it strange that people will defend pineapple on pizza as being "not wrong, just let people enjoy what they enjoy" but will throw a hissy fit if someone were to eat a hot dog sideways, or sit on a toilet backwards (which originally was the intended method).

    Plain af New York style cheesecake. You weirdos that put berries on it are strange.

    I don't do much dessert any more.

    Carrot cake with a lot of cinnamon and cardamom and cream cheese frosting is the biggest exception. Or just like chocolate chip banana bread.

    A week or two ago, I made my wife some peanut butter cookies, because she really likes those. I decided to keep half the dough in the fridge so I could make more fresh. The next day I grabbed a nice dark chocolate square from a bowl we keep on the counter and thought, "I wonder how the league butter dough would be on this." Oh my god, it was like the best Reese's peanut butter cup you've ever had. Truly amazing.

    homemade ice cream sundaes

    i went to an ice cream parlor once and ordered a banana split, but they were out of bananas. And while i did not go immediately across the street and buy a single banana from the grocery store right there, i decided that it was worth it during my next grocery run to purchase a carton of ice cream and some toppings and make them at home. and I've been doing that at home for almost two years now as my go to dessert

    You should share with us what your general recipe is, if you'd like to of course :)

    my go to right now is Neapolitan, a banana, some chopped walnuts, chocolate chips, and chocolate syrup. Not quite a true banana split, but more like whatever is easy to get in bulk. And I'll swap around the ice cream and occasionally the toppings depending on mood and availability. There was one point where we had some strawberries leftover after making waffles one day so i cooked them up into a syrup and used that as a topping for a while

    Well, a cocktail of course!

    I do like sweets sometimes. Ricotta cake with raspberries is the house favorite; tiramisu is amazing, cheesecake is great, ice cream, or a fruit salad. Those are all so good.

    To be honest I've been enjoying a bowl of frozen wild blueberries as an evening snack. Good antioxidants and fiber to boot but it tastes like icecream for me.

    I love tiramisu. It’s the only desert I’m remotely interested in if I go out for dinner.

    Lemon Ice, something about it is just nice in a way I can't really describe, and whenever I get into that headspace of wanting to share food with someone it's one of the first things I think of

    I’ll often choose an after-dinner drink, because I usually stuff myself during the main course. Maybe I’ll order an Espresso Martini. Or I’ll go full Dude and order a White Russian. Or whatever else looks good.

    When stumped, I’ll ask the server for a suggestion. I try to give them something to work with, like “sweet”, “creamy” or “citrusy”.

    I like m&m blizzards from dairy Queen but don't live near a DQ, so I don't often get them. I also feel bad that the employees are forced to turn them upside down when they present them to me. DQ has more interesting blizzard flavors but for some reason the boring m&Ms are my preference. DQ also has this peanut buster parfait, which sounds sexual in my head, but I like that one too. I swear this isn't a DQ account. Their hot food sucks ass and I suspect their employees make slave wages.

    I Also go crazy for chocolate chip cookies, and chocolate cake, and chocolate donuts.

    Harris Teeter (Kroger subsidiary) -brand "Private Selection" chocolate ganache ice cream. It makes all other chocolate varieties pale in comparison. I let it sit on the counter a little to soften, or I'll very briefly microwave it if I am impatient. I legit get a nice big eyelid-fluttering dopamine hit with every spoonful.

    Chocolate cheesecake. Always makes me feel sick but in a good way.

  • [–] 2 points 2 years ago*

    If you've never done this, I suggest giving it a try:

    A medjool date that's been soaked in hot water, then take it out of the water, place it above a bar of dark chocolate of the same length, and eat it together (like nigiri) in one bite.

    I say it should be dark because the date provides all the sugar and milkyness you'll need.

    You'll want to chew on that forever 🤤
