GTKY: Sweets

So what's your weakness as far as sweets go? I'm only thinking about this because I'm trying a new recipe for blonde peanut butter brownies with chocolate chips and M&Ms. Hopefully they turn out.
My weaknesses are brownies (regular, no junk in them) and rice crispy treats (especially the big fat ones that they sell at Disney).

Re: GTKY: Sweets
Most everything. I decided as of today, I am cutting them out. I have a new eating plan (it's not really a diet, just a plan) will start Monday since we grocery shop on Sunday.
Right now I am a sucker for Junior Mints or York Peppermint Patties.
Jell-O No Bake Oreo Cake.
Peanut Butter M&Ms.
Neon Sour Crawlers.
Double-Stuf Oreos dunked in milk.
I love all sweets! Strawberries, gummies, cheesecake, cake, chocolate (not plain, needs peanuts or something), ice cream, cobbler, cookies, etc. I would eat sweets all day if I could. I think I have a problem. We do not keep such things in our house or I would eat them all.
S'mores are also one of my weaknesses. We have BOTH an indoor and outdoor wood-burning fire place and I love to get a fire going, snuggle up, have a glass of wine and a few s'mores.

Tart fruity things like sourpatch kids, and dark chocolate. I don't keep any sweets in the house, so I'm forced to eat applesauce or fruit if I want a sugar fix. :-)
I made these last year for Thanksgiving and they were so good I still crave them now and again.
I forgot about these! My fav too! Now I'm craving them....
Ice cream and cheesecake.. Yum!

These are my favorite. I love popping them in the freezer and letting them get nice and cold. I actually make them at home all the time and they are so good when you get really good dark chocolate!
I have to say, like some of the other ladies, pretty much any sweet is a weakness for me.
I love triple chocolate meltdowns from applebees and at the moment i'm baking brownies "just cause"... lol.
I am not a big sweets person but if cheesecake or drumsticks are in my house they wont last long.
this is me exactly! my two favorite sweet treats!

I forgot about the recipe. If it's really long don't worry about it. I feel bad for making you type it out. If you do though, take your time.
