What is your favorite dessert when you were young and what is it now as an adult? Mine as a child was vanilla ice cream. As an adult it is Blueberry cheese cake.
Before: ice cream
Now: Bread pudding, followed closely by pineapple upside-down cake and banana cream pie.
My grandmother my dad's mom Would bake a blueberry pie for me on the rare occasion I had gotten to visit with my grandparents there is no comparison I have ever found to that treat. I have taught my self to bake as well as cook. On occasion, I will make a cheesecake. I use Fanny Farmers cheesecake recipe I alter it a tad when making the graham cracker crust I add 1/4 cup of sugar. In the cake itself, I add about 3 tablespoons of triple sec.
Then, anything.
Now, everything.
Oh yes, I was raised having 5 deserts/sweets every day - a good Danish family - and liked everything. Now, with super human restraint, its occasionally B&R pralines & creme, peanut M&Ms or warm fruit cobbler with vanilla ice creme. Wouldn't refuse most others either.
I'm on a diet at the moment, so desserts are off the menu.
Ha ha!
The Senora Desert, near Hermosillo, Mexico.
But if you mean dessert, I love ice cream cones..pistachio chocolate with chocolate chips.
A puff pastry that is shaped like a horn and filled with white sugary filling. It has always been my favorite. Second is coconut cream pie and third is a whoopie pie
Banana Pudding and Peach Cobbler. Loved it then, love it now.
