What kinds of desserts do you like?

Ruthanne, I shall introduce you to the British Columbia classic, Nanaimo Bars, which were invented less than an hour away from where I live. Cookie/nut crumble bottom, custard centre, firm dark chocolate top. To die for. All the major supermarkets, including Walmart sell them.

I've met a dessert I didn't like -- is anyone familiar with matrimonial cake, its a date bar made with dates and oatmeal? Yech!

I much prefer carrot cake.

LOL I love carrot cake! With or without cream cheese frosting.

HOWEVER. :D Even more than that I love date bars, and I love to put dates in my oatmeal.

Ummmm .... have y'all noticed that no one but Americans and Canadians are replying to this thread? No Australians. No New Zealanders. No English or Scots except one American now living in Scotland.

What's that say about us all, I wonder? lol
 
I also have a sweet tooth and anything chocolate is wonderful. I am dangerous around all desserts. Like you Ameriscot, I don't keep them around. My husband isn't for sets as much, so if it's in the house it's in my mouth. 😄
 
Chocolate ice cream, with a tablespoon of dark chocolate syrup on top....homemade chocolate chip cookies...Hershey's Dark Chocolate...Devils Food cake with chocolate frosting...guess you could call me a Chocoholic.
 
I'm weird, chocolate I can take or leave it. But creamy and cinnamon maybe oatmealy or rosewater, molassess even. Brown sugar and butter makes everything perfect.

LOL. That's what I say - if it's in the house it's in my mouth! Husband doesn't have a sweet tooth so that is very helpful!
 
I'm a huge fan of carrot cake and also fruit desserts such as pies and crisps. Then there's cheesecake! Love it! A few months ago my wife made a caramel pecan cheesecake that was to die for. Used a recipe from the Magnolia Bakery cookbook.

Do you think she's trying to kill me with her baking? I have a birthday coming up on Saturday and she's making me a caramel pecan layer cake (also from the Magnolia Bakery cookbook).

I'm sure she is putting lots of love into that cake! :)
