Well, Automatically I would immediately say a cupcake. But this time I think I am going to go with Butterscotch brownies.... I made them from the recipe posted by Bakerella. UMMMMMMMY! I am going to make them again this weekend, BUT I would love to have this wonderful plate to put them on. LOL

I just recently found a recipe for gingerbread brownies that I plan to make very soon...I bet they would taste even better served on this beautiful plate!

Delicious!
Devil's food cake with thick buttery chocolate frosting...perhaps a scoop of vanilla ice cream to top it off.
Mmm...I would want to eat a big slice of a dark chocolate cake with almond buttercream filling and chocolate ganache frosting! :sigh:
Def- a slice of bubbling hot pecan pie with cool vanilla ice cream.
And of course I would have to eat the plate clean, so as to show case the gorgeous plate!
Really I would be doing it a favor.
A big slice of coconut cake - I hope this goes through because I'm drooling and may short out my keyboard.
chocolate!
What's the first sweet you'd like to eat off of this fantastic plate? Peppermint Bark.. I LOVE it soooo much and it would look so good on that plate:)
Mmmm. Alton Brown's coconut macaroons with a little dollop of chocolate ganache and chopped macadamia nuts. I just got the recipe and can't wait to try it out!
I don't even have to think about that...chocolate cake!
