It’s Tuesday, that means that Carole wants to know:
My 10 Favorite Desserts
And, of course, since I am trying NOT to eat desserts right now…because POINTS. I am going to have to list all the things that I am not eating right now.
That’s right, this is the list to avoid if you are on a diet.
- Crème brûlée, perhaps my favorite dessert of all time. If I am getting dessert at a restaurant and they have Crème brûlée on the menu you can be guaranteed I will order it. Every.Single.Time.
- Ice Cream…this is the one I struggle with the most. Really, especially anything with coffee or caramel!
- Cake, any kind at all – with butter cream frosting, and lots of it!
- Martha Stewart’s Almond Tart, to.die.for. Topped with whipped cream, of course.
- Pumpkin pie. Seriously, it is so good.
- Cheesecake…need I say more?
- Brown Sugar Cookies, they are really so easy to make and taste so incredible!
- Smores – with homemade marshmallows, toasted in a bonfire on the beach! Bonus points for not getting sand in them!
- Lemon Cake with icing. Mmmmm.
- Chocolate Budino, pictured below… oh man. So. Good.
And, what is on my “eat” list?
- For the foreseeable future – fresh fruits. Good thing the fresh fruit season is almost upon us!
There you have it – my list of no-no’s. But, I want to know – what is your favorite dessert?
Oh, I’ll take anything “lemon” anytime. Your list is wonderful and to “drool for.” Enjoy the fruit; you’ll be happy later on…
Cheers~
I’m going to have to try that almond tart!
Trying to get through these ToT entries today so I can get past all the temptation!! SO YUMMY, and I’m definitely going to have to try Chocolate Budino.
Your #1 is my #1…and anything lemon. I don’t eat dessert often and I never make sweets at home, but I do enjoy eating other peoples handy work!
It all looks so good…lemon cake with lemon icing…yummmm. 🙂
Lemon everything, please! (And creme brûlée. And budino. And ALWAYS ice cream.) (This is a killer-week, non?)
I’m not familiar with Chocolate Budino,thanks for the link!
bookmarked the Brown sugar cookies -yum
Your list is awesome – I think cheesecake would be at the top of my list.
I have never had creme brulee, but apparently I need to remedy that situation — it appears on every single list I looked at today.
Check out my fresh fruit compote *recipe* on today’s blog. I used to make that every night all summer long and never got tired of it. You can omit the teaspoon of sugar if you prefer; I add it to get the juices flowing from the fruit.
Oh yes, coffee and caramel in icecream…especially TOGETHER!
