What your favorite dessert?

[KIR]

There are several threads here about various foods the members of the forum like to make and eat. It is only appropriate during this time of the year. In addition there are desserts after we consume all those various kinds of foods. So what are your favorite desserts anytime of the year?
I only have pumpkin pie, no whip cream with a cup of coffee and Kahlua, again, no whip cream once a year. There used to be a commercially frozen custard-pumpkin pie, but they changed their recipe, dropped the custard and lied that the custard was still in there, but they lied!
Cream pies: When I first started working at Fitzgeralds Casino, the deli used to have a delicious pineapple cream pie. I also like chocolate cream.
I really miss that Marie Callendar's left Reno many years ago, but I go to the one in L.A. when I visit my original home town. They have a Kahlua cream that is awesome.
Speaking of Kahlua, my favorite liqueur, I like to pour over vanilla ice cream when not having White Russians.
As for ice cream: Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Ice cream is my favorite.
So, what is/are your favorite dessert(s)?

Coconut Cream Pie. Hands down all time favorite.

 

[nekvermont]

I refuse to show favoritism, I like them all.

 

[Kevin]

Cherry pie. Actually just anything with cherries in it. Especially fresh cherries in the summertime.

 

[eveled]

@Kevin my Dad loved cherries as much as you. They are an anti inflammatory. I love them too, but my favorite is BANANA CREAM PIE! yum. Followed by key lime.

 

[Hvymax]

For a few weeks every year the Raspberries around my yard make for any number of wonderful desserts.

 

[Fox Mike]

Pineapple upside down cake; followed very closely by mom's apple pie.

 

[IKE]

Pecan pie.

 

[contender]

I don't have a single favorite desert. But I do prefer a lot of various things made from chocolate.

During the holidays,, I do thoroughly enjoy homemade pumpkin pie,, with whip creme. And while not a desert,, home made egg nog.

IKE: I have a recipe for Passionate Pecan Pie. Haven't made it in many a year...might dig it out for New Year's...

 

[Bob Wright]

Karo pecan pie, served hot with a mound of vanilla ice cream!

P.S. And Nita's famous cherry cheese pie!

I'm pretty simple, my home made apple crisp either hot out of the oven or chilled for a day or two in the fridge.
Big bowl of it cold with a double shot of Blanton's single barrel, kicked back in the recliner.

My first wife used to make a bourbon pecan pie that was great. My current wife makes brownies with coarsely chopped mixed nuts. Both are excellent.

My favorite is my mom's recipe pineapple cheesecake. However, I love a tart apple pie (Granny Smith) and I make a dozen or so (at least) tart (NOT too sweet) blackberry pies depending on our crop.

Custard Pie - LZ

Don't know if your favorites are affected like mine but egg nog is high this year and is officially available about Halloween to New Year's. This year I believe it wasn't available until after Thanksgiving. Official answer is supply chain issues, egg shortage etc.

 

[Xrayist]

Home made vanilla ice cream.

 

[Danjet500]

Warm elderberry pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I don't get this much anymore since the elderberries are kind of hard to come by.

How to separate the categories

Cookies: Oatmeal raisin

Pies: toss up between (real) key lime and cherry cheesecake

Cake: Chocolate molten

Pudding: Real banana (not the instant version, which is inspired by Satan)

Misc: Dark chocolate with a 20 year tawny port.

This is an exercise for me as my diabetes limits my consumption but it’s fun to list.

Homemade is available anytime you want it. Just sayin'

KISS principle - a quart of vanilla ice cream.

 

[arfmel]

I seldom have dessert, unless I'm a dinner guest. When I'm a guest I always have some dessert so as to avoid hurting my host's feelings.

I like cherry or peach pie (or cobbler) best.

I understand! 80/20 rule!!

Pumpkin pie is hard to beat, but my Grandmother used to make rhubarb pie that was out of this world. Rhubarb crisp, also. Being diabetic, desserts don't happen much here.

 

[RoninPA]

I'm a Type II diabetic so I have to be careful also . But I almost can't say I have a favorite dessert. I've had "desserts" from all over the world due to my USAF career and my worldwide field engineer job and can't remember any that I truly didn't like. I guess,,,, if I had to choose just one,,,, I think it would have to be pecan pie but I really had to think and think hard to come to that decision.

 

[Lt Choate]

As an equal opportunity dessert eater, I can honestly say that I love every single dessert described here. And there have been several.
But, if I have a Ruger Blackhawk .357 held to my head, forcing me for the single dessert I will take with me to the "desserted" island (sorry for the pun), it would be Pecan Pie................

 

[Pál_K]

KIR, Kahlua is absolutely wonderful; Kahlua over vanilla ice cream is ecstasy.

For ice cream, I love both chocolate chip and jamoca.

Milk chocolate is an addiction - I have to force myself to limit how much I eat, as I'm diabetic, type 2.

Cheesecake... used to eat it daily when I was in my 20's. That's when I was healthy and fit.

The only desserts I don't like are those with nuts, although I love cashews.

If it had to come down to just one it’s probably Blueberry Crunch, in a casserole dish you pour a layer of blueberries, then add a can of crushed pineapple, then pour yellow cake mix and crushed pecans on top that and top it off with a little sugar and melted butter and bake… have it on my birthday every year, must stop drooling now

 

[Ligase]

Cherry pie for me, I can walk away from just about everything else.
