Today's question is a yummy one...what's your favorite dessert or sweet? I love anything chocolate, but give me a flourless chocolate torte with some real whipped cream and I will happily slide into a chocolate coma.
Hmmm... that's a tough one because i LOVE desserts. If my Mom is making the dessert, I love her Texas sheet cake and her lemon bars just about equally. If it's me making it, I like my Apple Delight... it's like apple pie in a 13x9 pan and the dough is crescent rolls from a tube, so it's SUPER easy to make. I even scrapped the recipe:
Creme brulee... good thing we don't regularly have dessert. Although when we go to Black Angus, we share the toll-house cookie (in a small pie pan) with a scoop of ice cream. It is yummy.
churros con chocolate! particularly, there's a little shop near the plaza mayor in madrid that has th best churros. mmmm... i think an international travel plan is in order... gotta go get me some of those! however, since really good churros aren't readily available most of the time (ps, americanized mexican restaurant churros do not count), i'll settle for cheesecake with peanutbutter or chocolate (or both, i'm not picky really).
Oh it's sooooo good, one of my favorites. It's got espresso in it, so it has a sweet creamy coffee taste to it, and the texture is like custard with spongecake. (Its espresso-soaked lady fingers with marscapone and cocoa)
It's hard to pick one! I have been on an ice cream bender lately, which is not good! But my faves are probably my grandma's recipe for cheesecake or my aunt's apple pie with a crumble topping. I also made some pretty awesome white chocolate chip brownies this weekend. Baking runs in my family, as does our sweet tooth. LOL!
So hard to choose!!! I am an old school dessert person - good 'ole basic apple pie (anything apple really!), or pumpkin pie. My normal dessert, when I have it, is ice cream though!
Easy. Lemon meringue pie. I ADORE it. But there are about 79 runners-up ... perfect chewy brownies, my amazing sugar cookies, peach or berry cobbler, a hot pizookie, just cookies in general. Mmmm. Now I need to go bake some cookies. Gee thanks.
