I made cherry pie for Easter Dinner at @Andy Mink's house. I tend to cut back on sugar because I like my pie a little tart.If I'm eating out and have a craving for a dessert, its usually Tiramisu or Creme Brûlée
At home, one of my favorites is home made pie, usually apple, and now that my friend send me a supply of pitted frozen tart cherries, I'll be making some of my home made cherry pie.
I think it went over well.

Yum! Are the cherries from Michigan or Washington?I made cherry pie for Easter Dinner at @Andy Mink's house. I tend to cut back on sugar because I like my pie a little tart.

Michigan Tart Cherries.
A friend of mine sent her son here for his spring break. She sent him with an extra checked bag with 10 quarts of frozen tart cherries which, believe it or not, are impossible to find out here.
When I ask anyone at a store, even Trader Joe's, for frozen tart cherries for pie, they say, "why don't you just use sweet cherries?"
From someone who grew up making pies the way they ought to be made, this is unacceptable.
You don't use sweet cherries for cherry pie, just like you don't use red delicious apples for apple pie.

Those are usually a staple at the ski house in Colorado.....like crack!
Talenti gelato. It may be regional, but i bought a pint when i had a craving a couple of weeks ago instead of getting the usual cookies and the chocolate PB was creamy and delicious. I stopped at Shop Rite last night on the way home from the gym to get a healthy dinner of blackened salmon and stopped in the frozen aisle to get some edamame. The gelato was on sale again for $2.88. Better yet, $2 each if you buy 5.

Not all desserts need to be baked with exotic ingredients ( I do like a tart cherry pie).
Put bottle of choco-wine in freezer. Usually this is a dutch made red wine with chocolate which when frozen tastes like a fudgesicle.
Pour frozen choco-wine into shot glass.
Float some chocolate vodka on it
Add a little Bailey's
Enjoy!
A friend's wife calls this drink/dessert "liquid panty remover."

Yes, she made them all, this year she did bake homemade cookies but not as many different types. My Covid-19 weight is going to be close to 19 LBS.
I'lll bet!!! The pictures you post of the food at your house are fantastically mouth watering.
Not a big dessert eater, but always room for ice cream! (or better - gelato!)
I discovered a great dessert in Europe (where they insist you have dessert) - The Colonel. Lemon sorbet with a shot of vodka! Deliciously refreshing, and alcohol too!
