Dam For an after dinner dessert I will say Pineapple Upside Down Cake.
For a stand alone dessert it is Soft Serve Ice Cream, usually a twist and just ice cream nothing else.

Iris Any pastry from Giancarlo's. Homemade cheesecake or Baklava (warmed) ala mode both from Budd Lake Diner. Kahlua chocolate cake. Cherry or orange jello with whipped cream. I don't eat desserts too often; however these are my faves.

Sher Creme Brulee.......I could swim in it lol
Junket- It remeinds me of my Nana........can't find it anymore. Maybe on line, I'll have to ck.
littlelu Second on Creme Brûlée. It’s the global winner IMO. Had it on 4 Continents, many countries, and always good. Not to many deserts you can find in every country in the world.
Second is Mom’s cheese-pie (cheese cake filing in a graham cracker pie crust) topped with raspberries. Have one a year on my birthday. Hoping to make it to 100 pies!
Strangerdanger Creme Brulee used to be my very favorite dessert until the day when I "pigged out" on it and ....you know the rest of the story. The cheese pie with raspberry topping sounds delicious...

Old Gent Where is the closest place to buy creme brulee? Giancarlos has it, but I love it warm and crispy on the top!
fusselfrei Port, preferably old and Portuguese.
Barring that Strawberry Rhubarb pie is a good choice.

JimT @Luca, you must make a special trip to Mattars for that chocolate fondue. It is fantastic and worth every calorie. No joke.
3wbdwnj My favorite is probably the one I am eating at the time. Cheesecake, warm apple/baked fruit anything, chocolate anything, rice pudding.
Joyful; funny story- new wife made special desert for three years. Never perfect, always runny. Each year I smiled, said it was perfect, Mom’s was like that all the time while the thought bubble said “I wantmy Mommy’s.”
Mom had oopsed the recipe. Yeah, oops, sure.... One of those baking soda/powder sort of mistakes. Glad my wife is a good egg, then again, over 35 years of me proves how sweet she is that.....
While apparently my Mommy’s secret, let me know if recipe wanted. May take a bit, may be begging involved. Apparently it is now my wife’s secret. Pity those pending DIL’s......
Grand Marnier... if you force me to pour it over vanilla ice cream, I will... but I would prefer it straight from the snifter
ianimal Joyful.....when I was little my dad would crush up ice into a cordial glass and add Creme de Menthe in it..........even when I was 10 I LOVED it. lol That was the begining of the end for me lol Shoot when I was five I would sip on his huge bottle of Galliano...the bottle was taller then me.....oopps I guess it was in my blood.

auntiel I used to love a rice dessert my mom made in the 60's.
I think it was called 'Glorified Rice'...
It was rice with fruit cocktail, whipped cream, and marshmallows. ???
Mom always left out the marshmallows. We kids didn't like them.
Dad loved Jello with fruit cocktail mixed in it! ,,, Yuck! And we were FORCED to eat it!
charlies angel Embrodad, that's too funny, I actually like Jello with fruit cocktail :)
Does anyone remember Jello 1-2-3?
Dating myself, lol

Can’t decide on just one.
Zucchini bread, banana bread, pumpkin bread, apple cider donuts, rice pudding, anything chocolate, carrot cake, cheesecake, Saint Joseph cakes, cannolis, warm apple pie with vanilla ice cream, and warm peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream.
Oh, can’t forget anise/anisette cookies at Christmas time.

Two more that I forgot. Don’t know why I forgot these two favorites. Tiramisu and Napoleons/Mille-Feuille. pic attached
reisident08It’s only a picture. Don’t eat the picture!
That’s what the old bakery in Washington pumped out. Little single portions. You could buy a dozen and they would all look as pretty as that picture, but all would be different. Man, I miss that.
SD - Search on line for pictures. They have everything from whole cakes including HUGE wedding cakes, to single cookies, to individual pastries. They have like a whole case full of each. They also have focaccia and pizza.
thanks, I did, but did not see the mini pastries. thanks. yet another longer ways than I would like but sounds worth it. think there's some good veges down that way to so maybe can multi-task.
This is a Saint Joseph cake. Either filled with custard, jelly or cannoli filling. I prefer the cannoli filling.
They also have mini size whole cakes. All different types. I love the checkerboard cake and the one with the raspberry filling. Can't remember the name. Sacher torte? Very classy looking. Try the brownies. Best brownies that I ever had! And a caseful of cookies sold by the pound. I like the fig cookies and the rugelach. Lace cookies too!
magpie So if you have four people, buy three of each.... Makes for fun after dinner antics ;-)
Thanks GC, went again and saw your pic. Looks perfectundeliciosious. Xgiving gonna be berryberry good.

One of the cake displays from Giancarlo's. I'm new at including a photo. Hope ot comes through.
Love that place! Closest thing to a local bakery around here.
I can't include Weis and SR as 'bakeries', too many chemicals and the taste is off
on every item I've tried.
