Sammie, you're making me hungry LOLOL!!!

I LOVE Strawberry Shortcake, Cheesecake, and Peach Cobbler!!

My favorite Ice Cream Flavors are:
Vanilla
Cookie Dough
Cookies 'n' Cream
and do you know that they have an ICE CREAM Flavor of STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE!!!! (From Dreyer's) It's so delicious.

I like cookie dough, rasberry, cookies and cream. Mint choclete chip is okay. I like vanellia. Good old vanellia. You can try other flavors, they might be exciting for a little while. But when they've had their fun, vanellia is there to pick up the pieces, like that one friend from down the block...that you've had since first grade. um....Would you like to go to the prom with me?

I am in LOVE with Cheesecake Factory's Snickers cheesecake and the Tiramisu cheesecake. I love Macaroni Grill's chocolate cake, and all of Outback's desserts. Applebee's has a strabwerry shortcake sundae that's to die for. I also love Entenmann's cheese buns, Mrs. Smith's Dutch Apple Crumb pie with store brand vanilla and my mom's Sock It To Me Cake!

I've never been to the cheesecake factory.

Sigmagrrl, I agree with you on Mrs. Smith's Dutch Apple Pie. Yummy

I've yet to go to Macaronis though. I here good things about them. I did go to this one cheesecake restaurant in Puerto Rico two years ago and it was the bomb. I love almost any chocolate dessert, unless it has rasberry. I'm not a fan of rasberry sauce and chocolate. I do love cookiedough icecream. Some of my favorite dessert places are Applebees, I like two of their chocolate desserts. Olive Garden is another good dessert place. They have some good chocolate desserts as well. Here on the east coast we have a restaurant called Friendlys and they have the best desserts too. We have this one place in my hometown called Carl's. Its a very popular icecream shoppe here in town. Of course they only have Vanilla or Chocolate but it is to die for

Last weekend I went to this local French Restaurant in town called La Petite and they have some good chocolate desserts too. The one I had was just right. Not too rich

YUMMMMM. I am all about sweet foods. I absolutely loveeeeeee cheesecake. Plain cheesecake with strawberries and and turtle cheesecake are two of my favorites. I don't know how many of you have ever been to a Marble Slab Creamery but they have a cheesecake ice cream that tastes just like the real thing. I always get strawberries mixed in. YUMMMMMMMMMMMM. And I'm gonna have to go ahead and agree with Miami and Sigmagrrl...Mrs. Smith's apple pie is the best. Especially when it's fresh out of the oven!!!

I'm SOOOO hungry now!!!

Since we're talking about desserts, I'm going to give ya'll my extra-special, extra fattening, extra-rich brownie recipe, that I got from a Kids cookbook many years ago.

You need:

2 sticks butter
4 eggs
3/4 cups cocoa
2 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
dash of salt

Melt the butter, but don't let it boil. Mix together the cocoa and sugar, and then stir in the butter. Add the eggs and vanilla and then stir. Add the flour and salt and mix it until all the lumps are gone. Pour the mixture into a greased (cooking spray works fine) 8x8 or 9x9 pan, and bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes.

These are NOT for anyone on a low-fat diet!

OOOOH yummy.....LOL

LSUTigerGirl, I don't know if you caught it in my post or not, but Dreyer's Ice Cream makes a STrawberry Cheesecake flavor!!

It is to die for; it's my fave Dreyer's Ice Cream flavor! I think Breyer's also came out w/a Cheesecake flavor too...

equeen · #10 04-03-2001, 08:27 PM

Some of my favorites include:

7 Layer Bars (must have real butterscotch chips!!)

Gullab Jamun

Sohan Papri

Bread Pudding

Apple Pie

Pecan Pie

(yeah, equeen has a sweet tooth...

)

equeen, what galub jamun? thanks!

Thanks a lot for this fattening topic, sammie.

My father's family has a "thing" about strawberries...with sugar, over ice cream, strawberry shortcake, whatever! When they're in season they don't last long around my aunts, uncles & cousins. I definitely inherited this tendency!

Once a year, I gorge on apple dumplings from my college town's annual street fair.

And I just found a new Ben & Jerry's flavour - Orange and Cream. It kicks ass!! I really don't like ice cream w/ chunky things in it so this is right up my alley. Speaking of B & J - does anyone know if they discontinued Vanilla Caramel Fudge?? I haven't been able to find it lately.

This shouldn't happen in America!!

newbie · #13 04-03-2001, 09:04 PM

33girl, I love strawberries too

. I think it started with the DOLL Strawberry Shortcake!! I had all her stories and everything...even a greeting card collection!! Isn't she cute?!!

Then I started to like Strawberry Ice Cream, then the real things, then topped off w/my cereal...and the rest is history LOL...

OMG- i have tried the cheesecake flavored icecream from Marble Slab before and it is sooo yummy- i cant even imagine how good it would be with snickers!!!

Some of my favorite desserts would be tiramisu, sopapillas (they can be found in mexican restaurants, i LOVE mexican food- cant ever get enough- maybe because im a texan), i also love flan, and dump cake!

Has anyone ever tried dump cake? i posted the receipe in another topic a LONG time ago but if anyone is interested i can post it again!! Just as lifesaver... i think it was him... who tried it and LOVED it!

Edy's DREAMERY and Safeway both have a flavor called NY Cheesecake. The Edy's has strawberries in it. Safeway also has a Tiramisu ice cream!!! I LOVE EDY'S DREAMERY!!
