I have turned into a picky eater over the last few years but, one thing has stayed the same I very rarely eat desserts if it is not one of the following! I will occasionally try new desserts but, I don't really like them, just not worth the calories. I do however have 2 very important rules for making a dessert hit my favorite list: it must be a speciality of a restaurant or homemade! I have compiled a list of my favorite desserts. If you ever get the chance, all of the following are top of the line!
Grandmother Georgia's German Chocolate Cake
Chad's Memaw's Chocolate Pie
Chad's Mom's Chocolate Cheesecake
My Mom's Fudge
Bald Knob's Bulldog Cafe's Strawberry Shortcake
Market Place Chocolate Peanut butter Mess
American Cookie Factory Chocolate Chip Cookies with M&Ms (all of my shopping buddies will vouch for that) + a double doozie on special occasions!
Brandie Reynold's Sugar Cookies
Hershey's Dark Chocolate
Annie's crescent, Nutela, and icing pastry
My very favorite, sure to turn a bad day into a great one; a gift that has been stapled to my hips ever since we met....Rick's Bakery Petifors! This is what the picture above! After having a not so wonderful day, my thoughtful husband who works near Rick's brought me an assortment of their undeniably wonderful goods. So, after a day of disciplined healthy dieting I devoured the 3 chocolate petifors(one was eaten before the camera) and one of the sugar cookies already.....he got home 2 hours ago!
I am turning on my comments because I want to know, what is your favorite dessert and who makes it the best????

Funny you should blog about this today, because I totally splurged on desserts today, too. I usually am very picky about desserts, and I don't like things too sweet, but this afternoon I ate a huge piece of the leftover birthday cake my mom made me and then ate a cookie after dinner!
My fav's are
~creme brulee
~cowboy cookies
~dark chocolate (w/ or w/o nuts)
~ice cream
The rest I could do without for the rest of my life and not even care. Just give me a small piece of dark chocolate at night and I'm good. I do REALLY miss splitting a peanut butter chocolate mess with you and Kim, though!!
I will have to add cowboy cookies, although I took your idea and froze the dough and am not kind of sick of them! Ice cream is a good one too! I may be adding to my list soon!
Please call Chad and tell him that I also enjoy Rick's petit fors. So far I'm having a good day but you never know what might happen!! I have to say that I'm obsessed with desserts and would rather eat something sweet then have a meal...however, that has changed since the pregnancy thing. But, my favorites are/were:
-ice cream
-Rick's Bakery ANYTHING
-Chocolate anything!!!
I know the list is way longer than this I just can't think right now. But seriously, call Chad! I can't wait much longer after staring at that box!!!
Oh my gosh, I'm so with you on Ricks. I will gladly eat anything they make, sweet or not sweet. I love desserts, so it's hard to pick favorites. Seriously, it can be chocolatey or fruity, doesn't matter to me. And ice cream is so yummy. I'm usually a girl that goes for lots of stuff in her ice cream, but lately I'm really hooked on Yarnell's homemade vanilla.
My mouth was watering as I looked at that picture. I really wanted Matt to go out last night after reading it and get me some type of dessert or donut. My favorites are
-mom's banana pudding
-mom's or sister's strawberry shortcake
-TCBY's yogurt (white choc.mouse or pb)
-blackberry cobbler
-P.F.Chang's-Great WallofChocolate
-ice-cream (mint choc. chip or cookies-n-cream)
Chad is such a thoughtful husband! Your favorites definitely sounded delicious.
My favorites are:
*Choc. chip cookie dough cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory
*Bananas Foster
*Creme Brulee Cheesecake
*Key Lime Pie
And, of course, just about anything Brandie Reynolds bakes is amazing. She is so talented!!!
Long time reader, first time commenter (is that a word? commenter?) I JUST had to respond to this:
The best dessert ever: Ben & Jerry's Strawberry Cheesecake Icecream. LOVE IT!
P.S. Great blog!
Those are good ones, now I am thinking I should add a few disclaimers....I like blue berry cobbler too.....and some icecreams! Page, so nice to make a new friend in the blogging world. I was watching the Today show and they talked about how new generation women and blogging! Making new friends was part of it!
Seriously this is right up my alley. I'm pretty sure that I have never met a dessert I didn't like. Here are my ultimate favs:
1. Chocolate peanut butter mess-marketplace
2. homeade Yellow cake w/ chocolate icing
3. Chocolate pie
4. German Chocolate cake
5. Girl scout cookies=thin mints, tagalongs, samoas
6. brownies w/ nuts
7. godiva open oysters
the list could go on and on but I gotta feed adalie, and nobody cares!
Wow - you ladies like some sweets, eh?! I honestly have to say that I am not a huge sweets eater - now,...foccacia bread from Macaroni Grill, pizza or tortilla chips and salsa - I could blog about that all day... Sorry! I will say that your cookie pic looks delicious and I LOVE it that you put Bald Knob milk shakes - I had completely forgotten how good that place was!!!
That is just wrong to post those petit fors when I'm 2000 miles away!! Those are my #1 favorite along with Copeland's Bananas Foster which i can't have either!! Tell Chad he gets major brownie point in my book... desserts are the true way to a woman's heart!! (ummm... speaking of brownies- those are pretty good too!)
Oh man...girl scout cookies....Godiva chocolates...add them to the list...maybe I am a big sweet person!!
Amanda...I probably shouldn't ever try the great wall of chocolate at pf changs....I know I will Love it!
and go ahead and add TCBY to my list!
And after tonight I have to add Brandie Reynolds Strawberry Shortcake...she really is a Bre!
