Kelly December 9th, 2010 A deli where I grew up called Joan & Ed’s (recently closed) used to have a french silk pie that was HEAVEN. I have no idea what made it so divine, but I’ll always remember it. Bobby December 8th, 2010 Flourless chocolate cakes / chocolate lava cakes are my favorite. Served warm with a glass of milk! Hamberguesa December 8th, 2010 Definitely spekuloos aka ground gingerbread cookies on a waffle from the Wafel Truck. It spreads like peanut butter! So good. Steph December 8th, 2010 Mine is probably a chocolate rum mousse served in a huge waffle cone display that I had on my honeymoon in St. Lucia. YUM. Hailey December 8th, 2010 A giant fortune cookie filled with dark chocolate and white chocolate mousse from Tao in Manhattan (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/fQt4D34vcJNtEf8Q4zte3w?select=abZoiYtozTwRm_S5wQ5PmA) Allison December 8th, 2010 I made a Paula Deen flourless fudge chocolate cake a couple of times that is unbelievably rich. Thinking about it makes me drool. Cecilia Chien December 7th, 2010 Homemade dulce de leche poured on creamy vanilla ice cream with hot fudge and crushed peanuts at Italian-Argentinan restaurant, Sosa Borello on 8th ave between 50th & 51st, NYC Andrea December 7th, 2010 I always think back to a rich bananas foster I had at a restaurant as a child, served warm with vanilla ice cream. Nick December 7th, 2010 caramel apple cheesecake from tweetiepiesnyc! Kim December 7th, 2010 Molten Chocolate Cake with salted caramel ice cream and caramel candy corn from Lure downtown. I seriously went back like four times during restaurant week…. soooooooo good!! Allison December 7th, 2010 caramel apple cheesecake from @tweetiepiesnyc (an Astoria baker!!) so perfectly delicious. Laura December 7th, 2010 probably the pumpkin cheesecake that a friend of mine made a couple of years ago for a post Thanksgiving bash. Or the hot chocolate at Claire’s confections in Port Jefferson, NY. Oh my god- like sex in a cup!! Eileen Diskin December 7th, 2010 My roommate and I found a recipe online we just had to make. They were called “turcupens” – the dessert equivalent of turducken. Take a hershey’s hug and wrap raw cookie dough around it. Freeze the cookie dough balls. Make devils food cake, cake mix – make into cupcakes. Drop a cookie dough ball (with Hershey’s hug inside) in the center of the cupcakes before baking. Once done and cooled – frost with homemade chocolate ganache. In one bite, you can actually feel your arteries clogging ….. worth it! Lee December 7th, 2010 Pudding chomeur at Au Pied de Cochon in Montreal is pretty damned decadent. Douglas Hall December 7th, 2010 Banofee pie – graham cracker crust, bananas and toffee. Incredible. Ashley Willisch December 7th, 2010 The most decadent desert I have ever tasted was a creme mint brownie! It sounds simple enough but the cake was fudgy and moist. It had a think layer of white cream mint! It was topped with a dark chocolate ganache! The brownies were made by a sweet Russian woman who has since passed away. Although many people have tried to recreate her recipe. It has never tasted the same. Misswillisch@gmail.com Keriann December 7th, 2010 blackberry crumble with vanilla ice cream – yum!! Sue Yacka December 7th, 2010 Homemade truffles at a place i used to work in New Brunswick, NJ! DennyCrane December 7th, 2010 Cheesecake Factory cheesecake is always hard to pass up. Jenn December 7th, 2010 I had this amazing creme brulee at a restaurant in Vegas. Jane December 7th, 2010 I’ve yet to make this, but my sister just told me about something called Crack Pie. It’s pecan pie without the pecan topping… and extra gooey filling :] Mmmm.. I look fwd to trying some brownie pops here, also! Great idea. Ann December 7th, 2010 My sister in law makes a white chocolate mousse cake w/ raspberry sauce. It is divine! LENNY December 7th, 2010 I had a rasberry topped chocolate cheesecake with macadamia nut ice cream at Bern’s Steakhouse in Tampa once that was the most ridiculous thing I have ever eaten. Janice December 7th, 2010 The most decadent was prob. choc lava cake!!
