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?

A brownie sundae!!!

A thicc hot brownie with walnuts, two scoops of vanilla bean ice cream (the real stuff), drizzled with hot fudge and caramel sauce!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I mix peanut butter with oatmilk and appel syrup and I eat it all up like a dog with two dicks.

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 🤤

Hard dick and bubblegum

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I'm stuck between strawberries with honey, and a few scoops of stracciatella or vanilla chocolate chip ice cream with an espresso poured over it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Warm Apple crisp with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!

Candy with fentanyl please

A scoop of vanilla ice cream with chartreuse poured on top.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I really like basic vanilla cake with buttercream frosting.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Watermelon slices with Tajin spice which is a chili lime spice. The absolute best.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I have both, but I’m not cutting up the watermelon until tomorrow. Will try this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

It's honestly amazing. Especially with a cold fruity kind of beer on a hot day.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Cendol

or

Caramel flan

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Recently learned a new, simple cocktail.

  • 330ml rhubarb lemonade
  • 40ml Licor 43
  • 10-20ml lime juice
  • 3-4 ice cubes

Absolute perfection IMHO

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Blue Diamond makes these blueberry-flavored almonds that are amazing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Whatever is around with lots of sugar or fat. Icecream, cookies, cake, potato chips.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Just some quite time with my wife. If it has to be some type of food, then seasonal fruit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Cup of coffee. I don't want to eat anything else. I literally just ate.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

A big bowl of sleep

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Or frozen grapes! Many frozen fruits are so, so good and refreshing as snacks

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

My honey ordered a cookies&cream milkshake at Fuddruckers once upon a time, and they sadly told him they were out of oreos. We teased them so badly about that, they were shamed into going across the street to the store to buy a bag of oreos. I don't think we went over the line. I hope. We were trying to be lighthearted about it. and we were very appreciative that they fulfilled our order.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

That sounds really good! The Neapolitan is an interesting choice. I'd probably lean more towards one of the 'safer' flavors. Lol

Cha cha (喳咋)

Imagine red bean soup, with a slight taste of coconut.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I've never had it before but I see all sorts of Japanese treats are made with red beans (usually as a paste) and I would love to try it; what's it taste like? Can it be equated to any kind of Western thing or is it wholly unique?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Red beans have their own kind of sweet. I don't know what to compare them with.

I'd say you can try to think of boba tea (not western i know), but instead it's hot, with textures of very fine sand.

Throw some Costco Ghirardelli brownie mix in a mug

Add a little milk and stir

Microwave for roughly 45 seconds, until it starts bubbling, then quickly stop

Throw some vanilla ice cream on top

Eat it up with a glass of milk on the side

Fuckin delightful man

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I have all these things right now in the house. omg. Yet I've already gone to bed and I don't want the cats thinking they can finagle another midnight snack out of me if I get back up to putter around the kitchen. Dessert for breakfast it shall be!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

What was it like? :D

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago
[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

blackberries and strawberries

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

A short black. Sometimes chocolate fudge ice cream or something, but rarely.
