Anytime I visit my mom she always makes me a hot brownie dessert. A hot fudge brownie topped with vanilla ice cream and warm chocolate syrup.Yummee!
It's usually followed by an extrme sugar rush and a trip to the dentist.
Another good mom dessert: Homemade cheesecake, OH YEAH, and not made with any low-fat stuff, give me the real thing, baby.

Hrm..I think maybe tiramisu is my favorite. I've never quite gotten around to making it myself, though. Cheesecake is a close second. Hell, I'll eat almost anything sweet http://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

No, the stuff is so rich that it didn't need ice cream. It came on a plate drenched with melted white and darker chocolates, with whipped cream and berries. I mentioned it because I had it last night http://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

Not yet, I only go into the "city" for groceries once every two weeks. Need carrots. But, I WILL!!!!
As for ice cream - it's okay once a year.
