Hellyeah!! I`ve made that a few times, everyone loves it. same with key lime pie.

I am always in search of the PERFECT CHOCOLATE LAYER CAKE!

And I love peach pie/peach cobbler...

Yes!

Any dessert that includes banoffee in it in some form, is heaven.

This week, I made some sour cream and tart cherry ice cream. I used dried cherries macerated in Southern Comfort.

Saks Fifth Avenue has a chocolate bar that serves an insane banoffee. The first time I'd ever had it was there, and I immediately thought, "Where have you BEEN all my life?"

Since it's cold here, I made ginger cookies this week. They were pretty damn good, if I do say so myself.

In general, my favorite desserts are cookies and brownies. But I love chocolate cake--most kinds of cake, really--too.

I'm also a big fan of just some plain old dark chocolate, with some red wine or coffee.

Have you ever had chocolate with beer? There are a couple of Polish porters that are amazing with chocolate - Zywiec and Black Boss. They have lots of dark fruit and hints of chocolate, themselves.

I made Guinness ice cream to go with a chocolate cake awhile back and been toying with the idea of making Zywiec marshmallows to put in hot chocolate.

Ooh, this gives me a whole bunch of new ideas to try.

That Guinness ice cream sounds incredible. Did you serve the cake and ice cream with Guinness, too?

In my world a dessert has to include ice cream to be worthy of being called dessert. It can be pie with ice cream or berries with ice cream or whatever, but there has to be ice cream somewhere on my plate! Best of all is of course a pure ice cream dessert.

Along the same lines: In England - from what I've heard - many actually call dessert "pudding" (even when it's cake or something else), probably because it's so common to have pudding for dessert. They're a bit weird over there.

- Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream

- Peach pie or cobbler with vanilla cream

- Chocolate or cookies-n-cream alone (with hot fudge)

not much--just sugar and butter. The crust is flour, butter, shortening, sugar, salt, and water

then when you make it you brush the crust with milk and sprinkle more sugar over it

I have an addiction to "Cookies"....Not just ANY cookie either....My "dealer" is Otis Spunkmeyer. Otis sells the BEST cookies I've ever eaten...99% of my visits to "Subway" is just to buy their cookies and the occasional Sub...

I am a Cookie-Freak...Don't want them "crunchy" they gotta be SOFT....

There's an Italian pastry shop nearby that makes these things called Rum Babas;

It's a sweet cake with rum.

I'm going to get some TODAY...haven't had one in YEARS!

My latest creations...chocolate mint cupcakes with peppermint vanilla frosting! Made them a few weeks ago for a friend's afternoon tea. And I gave a couple to my neighbour's grandson, who lives downstairs. The look on his face...
