Pudding Cake

Yesterday, Will and I went with our friends Zanon and Kelly to Venice Beach and Santa Monica. Zanon and Kelly are both from Washington and, although they have lived here for almost two years, they had not yet been to a beach in California. They were both pretty excited and they had packed a backpack and a bag full of stuff--sunscreen, apples, water, sweaters, and other paraphernalia. I had my purse. Will had nothing except the clothes he was wearing. This is so typical us.

We walked the boardwalk in Venice and, in the evening, drove up to Third Street Promenade to have dinner. We ate at Ye Old King's Head and spent nearly two and half hours in the British Pub ordering lots of drinks and more dessert items than necessary. Kelly and I both ordered traditional English desserts--treacle sponge pudding and sticky toffee pudding--while Will and Zanon each ordered plain, old, everyday hot fudge sundaes. Boys are weird.

During dinner, Zanon was quizzing us on all of our favorites in life and asked the typical question: if you were being sent to the electric chair what would you request for your last meal? We answered that and then he asked what our last dessert would be.

Zanon quickly decided that it would be some dessert his mother makes that involves peanut butter and chocolate, Kelly would choose crème brûlée from a restaurant in her hometown, and I would go with decadent and dense Marvelous Market brownies. My husband? He would go with a Fatburger Oreo milkshake.

We want to know, what would be your dessert of choice?

Sunshine Cake, which is my favorite. A yellow cake with mandarin oranges blended in that covered in a thick frosting made up of vanilla pudding, cool whip and crushed pineapple. Served icy cold with hot coffee. Yum.

My mom's frosted sugar cookies, preferably heart shaped. But then I wonder, would my mom make me cookies if I were on death row? My husband said she would. I still kinda wonder.
