My weakness is tiramisu, it's so frickin good. Hook me up with a piece of that and I'm in heaven.

But what about you, what dessert item really moves your meter?

homemade ice cream sundaes

i went to an ice cream parlor once and ordered a banana split, but they were out of bananas. And while i did not go immediately across the street and buy a single banana from the grocery store right there, i decided that it was worth it during my next grocery run to purchase a carton of ice cream and some toppings and make them at home. and I've been doing that at home for almost two years now as my go to dessert

You should share with us what your general recipe is, if you'd like to of course :)

my go to right now is Neapolitan, a banana, some chopped walnuts, chocolate chips, and chocolate syrup. Not quite a true banana split, but more like whatever is easy to get in bulk. And I'll swap around the ice cream and occasionally the toppings depending on mood and availability. There was one point where we had some strawberries leftover after making waffles one day so i cooked them up into a syrup and used that as a topping for a while

That sounds really good! The Neapolitan is an interesting choice. I'd probably lean more towards one of the 'safer' flavors. Lol

My honey ordered a cookies&cream milkshake at Fuddruckers once upon a time, and they sadly told him they were out of oreos. We teased them so badly about that, they were shamed into going across the street to the store to buy a bag of oreos. I don't think we went over the line. I hope. We were trying to be lighthearted about it. and we were very appreciative that they fulfilled our order.
