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?
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.
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”.
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.
I thought this story was going to end with your wife having ate the dough as a midnight snack.
Ice cream or frozen custard, especially now that it’s so hot.
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).
Creamy, crunchy, fruity? What you want is Eton Mess. https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/eton-mess
