Actually, it's cheesecake. This week. Because my wife has banned it from the house.

I agree with your wife. No cheesecake in the house.
....also, I don't like cheesecake.

Are you an alien? Welcome to Earth.
When people eat cereal, there's generally one debate. Milk first, or cereal first?
Would it interest you to know that I don't like milk on my cereal AT ALL? No milk please!
Or that with the exception of corn, I eat all my vegitables raw only?
Or that I don't like dark chocolate?
I'm trying to think of other things people think is crazy that I don't like.......
OH! Mac and Cheese.
I also find it strange that people will defend pineapple on pizza as being "not wrong, just let people enjoy what they enjoy" but will throw a hissy fit if someone were to eat a hot dog sideways, or sit on a toilet backwards (which originally was the intended method).
Plain af New York style cheesecake. You weirdos that put berries on it are strange.
I don't do much dessert any more.
Carrot cake with a lot of cinnamon and cardamom and cream cheese frosting is the biggest exception. Or just like chocolate chip banana bread.
A big bowl of sleep
Throw some Costco Ghirardelli brownie mix in a mug
Add a little milk and stir
Microwave for roughly 45 seconds, until it starts bubbling, then quickly stop
Throw some vanilla ice cream on top
Eat it up with a glass of milk on the side
Fuckin delightful man
I have all these things right now in the house. omg. Yet I've already gone to bed and I don't want the cats thinking they can finagle another midnight snack out of me if I get back up to putter around the kitchen. Dessert for breakfast it shall be!
A week or two ago, I made my wife some peanut butter cookies, because she really likes those. I decided to keep half the dough in the fridge so I could make more fresh. The next day I grabbed a nice dark chocolate square from a bowl we keep on the counter and thought, "I wonder how the league butter dough would be on this." Oh my god, it was like the best Reese's peanut butter cup you've ever had. Truly amazing.
I thought this story was going to end with your wife having ate the dough as a midnight snack.
No, she/we didn't eat it all at once, but none of the rest of it made it into the oven, either.
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
Watermelon slices with Tajin spice which is a chili lime spice. The absolute best.
I have both, but I’m not cutting up the watermelon until tomorrow. Will try this.
Well, a cocktail of course!
I do like sweets sometimes. Ricotta cake with raspberries is the house favorite; tiramisu is amazing, cheesecake is great, ice cream, or a fruit salad. Those are all so good.
Ice cream or frozen custard, especially now that it’s so hot.
Warm Apple crisp with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!
blackberries and strawberries
Cendol
or
Caramel flan
Sticky toffee pudding. Warmed up with some vanilla iced cream.
To be honest I've been enjoying a bowl of frozen wild blueberries as an evening snack. Good antioxidants and fiber to boot but it tastes like icecream for me.
Or frozen grapes! Many frozen fruits are so, so good and refreshing as snacks
I'm with you on tiramisu. If I could only have one dessert for the rest of my life, that would be it!
Cup of coffee. I don't want to eat anything else. I literally just ate.
Cha cha (喳咋)
Imagine red bean soup, with a slight taste of coconut.
I've never had it before but I see all sorts of Japanese treats are made with red beans (usually as a paste) and I would love to try it; what's it taste like? Can it be equated to any kind of Western thing or is it wholly unique?
I love tiramisu. It’s the only desert I’m remotely interested in if I go out for dinner.
Hard dick and bubblegum
A sandwich of a couple of frozen Entenman's (Local brand?) Mini chocolate chip cookies with a spoonful of Ben & Jerry's Phish Food filling.
edit: my spouse wants me to add, "and a joint."
Lemon Ice, something about it is just nice in a way I can't really describe, and whenever I get into that headspace of wanting to share food with someone it's one of the first things I think of
A short black. Sometimes chocolate fudge ice cream or something, but rarely.
I really like basic vanilla cake with buttercream frosting.
Just some quite time with my wife. If it has to be some type of food, then seasonal fruit.
Blue Diamond makes these blueberry-flavored almonds that are amazing.
A brownie sundae!!!
A thicc hot brownie with walnuts, two scoops of vanilla bean ice cream (the real stuff), drizzled with hot fudge and caramel sauce!
If you've never done this, I suggest giving it a try:
A medjool date that's been soaked in hot water, then take it out of the water, place it above a bar of dark chocolate of the same length, and eat it together (like nigiri) in one bite.
I say it should be dark because the date provides all the sugar and milkyness you'll need.
You'll want to chew on that forever 🤤
I like m&m blizzards from dairy Queen but don't live near a DQ, so I don't often get them. I also feel bad that the employees are forced to turn them upside down when they present them to me. DQ has more interesting blizzard flavors but for some reason the boring m&Ms are my preference. DQ also has this peanut buster parfait, which sounds sexual in my head, but I like that one too. I swear this isn't a DQ account. Their hot food sucks ass and I suspect their employees make slave wages.
I Also go crazy for chocolate chip cookies, and chocolate cake, and chocolate donuts.
A scoop of vanilla ice cream with chartreuse poured on top.
I’ll often choose an after-dinner drink, because I usually stuff myself during the main course. Maybe I’ll order an Espresso Martini. Or I’ll go full Dude and order a White Russian. Or whatever else looks good.
When stumped, I’ll ask the server for a suggestion. I try to give them something to work with, like “sweet”, “creamy” or “citrusy”.
Chocolate cheesecake. Always makes me feel sick but in a good way.
I'm stuck between strawberries with honey, and a few scoops of stracciatella or vanilla chocolate chip ice cream with an espresso poured over it.
I mix peanut butter with oatmilk and appel syrup and I eat it all up like a dog with two dicks.
