What are you having for dessert?
« on: January 14, 2013, 09:39:35 am »
I love hearing what people are having for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but what about dessert or sweets? I'm always up for a late night nibble of something sweet & would love to have inspiration!
Tonight we had coffee and doughnuts :)

Lucky you. We don't have dessert unless we have visitors. Occasionally DH will have icecream, DD often has icecream and I will have a bit of yoghurt.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

SD always has fruit and a drizzle of cream for his pudding. At the moment we also have some rhubarb ice cream that I made ;D
Sometimes I make something more substantial from here. Or if we are given some fruit or something that needs to be used up I look for a recipe :)

We only have dessert when we have people over for dinner or family gatherings.
I always have ice-cream in the freezer for the kids as well as yogurt and fresh fruit.
Occasionally I have a chocolate craving and then I give into temptation and eat some Lindt soft centered chocolate balls  ;)

As much as I love desserts, I rarely make them just for us - I'd have to end up eating the lot myself and I don't need it.  Mind you I do a pretty good job on the tubs of ice-cream but I like pieces of fruit or freshly made bread with home-made jam and cream as well.  If I was eating at someone else's house though, I would never say no to a dessert  - I rarely have them in restaurants unless everyone else does. When I do make dessert, as we usually have our main meal of the day for lunch, I will then have the dessert in place of anything else for tea.

Homemade yoghurt and maple syrup poured...I mean drizzled ;) over the top. Half nice half naughty but really soft for my sore teeth ;)

I make desserts for when we have guests, but rarely eat any.

 I make cakes, slices, biscuits more :)

I make sorbets for kids alot.
My Thermomix,  Kitchen Aid, Pizza oven, Nu Wave 5 in 1, Spatulas, all brings love, laughter, happiness, and great food  to my kitchen.

Oh great thread.   I have been addicted to raspberry coconut icecream lately. Freeze coconut cream till nearly frozen but still able to chop into chunks  and whizz up in TMX with frozen raspberries, a bit of icing sugar and a little more unfrozen coconut cream.  It's sublime!

Don't usually cook desserts unless someone is coming over. Try not to eat them often  ;D

Jude that sounds divine. Must make it soon.
Have passionfruit flummery in fridge for tonight's dessert. Boys eat dessert almost every night. I sometimes join in ;)
