My last dessert would definately be English Trifle the way my mom always made it. No custard but a strawberry cream in its place. OMG! Heaven

strawberry short cake!
My last meal dessert would be Red Velvet or Oreo cheesecake from the Cheesecake factory! Yum!
Crème brûlée or flan
my husband's chocolate chip cookies!
An ooey, gooey, chocolate-frosted brownie for me, thanks!
I would have Key Lime Cheesecake!!
a WARM morning bun (or two) from Tartine in SF
A real Canoli from anywhere in the Northeast. I'd die for one now.
Cheesecake - pure and simple. No contest!
I would absolutely love a linzer tart as my last dessert. I love those!
ooo--tough question. but a cold creme brulee with a freshly torched brown sugar top with strawberries... plus something a little chocoate-y on the side wouldn't hurt!
I have always loved rocky road, so... I would make a decadent dark chocolate fondant pudding.. oozy on the inside when you dig into it with your spoon. It would be studded with glossy bites of rosewater turkish delight and shattered pistachio nuts for a little crunch and savory-ness. (somehow I would keep the turkish delight from melting lol) On the plate I would sprinkle it with a few home-made fluffy marshmallow pieces and dust with a little icing sugar. Served with a dollop of the thickest, richest vanilla bean ice cream. Heavenly...
In choosing my last desert about a million flavors run though my mind. Is it something crunchy or creamy, sweet and decadent or tart and tangy. There are so many to choose from and the previous responses weigh heavily however, I have choosen one. The Ultimate Everything Big Fat Cookie. I actually do not have a recipe for this but I have been on a mad quest for a tried and true BIG FAT COOKIE recipe that I can make at home. I imagine it could have everything from oats, rice crispies, chocolate bits, dried fruit and nuts, have a chewy center yet crunchy outer rim. These Big Fat Cookies will be portable and packed with a variety of flavors to keep my mind entertained for where ever it is that I may be going! So, bid me well on my journey and send me your recipes quick- for this is MY LAST DESERT! :)
Vanilla Frozen Yogurt with rainbow sprinkles
I would have to say a lemon cupcake covered in Pink Lemonade icing sprinked with pink sugar crystals and a lemon twist on top.
Definitely smores!!!!!!
Fried Apple Pie (crumb-top, preferably) with Bacon & Ice Cream
Actually, I had it for breakfast this morning with Rum Raisin Ice Cream. My life is complete
One of my earl grey tea cupcakes with infused ganache frosting...yuuuuum.
It would HAVE to be a dessert I had at a guy friend's house...his grandma called it "the next best thing to robert redford." It had a nutty cookie crust, with a french silk pie filling topped with a cream cheese like whipped 'SEXONAPLATE' (wink ;) @foodphilosophy). AMAAZZING.
My grandma's date-nut gingerbread. Mmm.
Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream made from scratch with mint from the garden...if you have not tried this you are missing out. completely different from anything you could buy at the store!
A huge, just-from-the oven chocolate brownie, topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and chocolate sauce. In a bowl. :)
Texas Sheet Cake.
