After debm: You can only eat One Dessert for rest of your life! What is it? 😄 [View all]

Bc I just did deb's one food challenge, and I had a dessert on my narrow it down list, I decided to toss it out here.

Dark chocolate 🩷 is my favorite dessert in almost any form!

As much as I love Ice Cream(!!!!!) I'm choosing this instead.
(I just had Talenti's double dark chocolate gelato for the first time in a few months. Little irregular chips, and a touch of Vermouth. Not my favorite liquor at all but it's minimal enough I can ignore it. Probably would have preferred a bit of bourbon instead)

So there's a particular chocolatier's Dark Chocolate Chocolate Chip cookie with Walnuts.
Ohhhhh, yum.

I love the heft if this cookie (it's big). The dark chocolate is sooooo good! I also like having the extra taste, and contrast of the added walnuts.

What's yours?! 😄👍
