Oooh. Bread with Nutella baked in.
Can I compromise and say chocolate cinnamon rolls? My chocolate cinnamon rolls. Bread and chocolate. Yum.

I think we’re on to something here. My mom makes a cinnamon roll that is a pie crust rolled up with cinnamon, brown sugar, and butter - I could easily make that with Nutella or chocolate in it. It would be like chocolate cinnamon pie. (Did someone say food porn? :smiley: )

In this case I’d say hot fresh bread with Nutella spread. MMmmmmmMmmmmm
[/QUOTE]

First, I would have a thick slab of fresh bread slathered on both sides and the edges with Nutella.

Then, I would have a bowl of Nutella with bread mixed in.

And then…it would get crazy. :eek:

Bread. For me, bread isn’t just the food, it’s a connection with nearly the whole of human history. Well, western history, then.

I am such a dork that my favourite book ever is 6000 Years of Bread: Its Holy and Unholy History by H. E. Jacob.

I am definitely surprised that almost the universal answer is bread. I don’t do desert often so to me that is special. Bread is a daily exercise. I can make it if I want but it is hardly worth it. Especially considering that it is guaranteed that I will eat many more calories if I do make bread. If I’m gonna do useless calories, it’s gonna be on a mega desert. Once every few weeks, that’s my treat. It ain’t gonna be bread that’s for sure.

The Bread. Every time.

Bread. In fact I have a no knead loaf going right now and if I’m up early guess who’s getting freshly baked sourdough for breakfast tomorrow?

67

It’s a little known fact that bread straight from the oven has absolutely no calories what so ever, even if it’s covered in butter.

Hot apple pie, lattice crust, steam rising, with vanilla ice cream (or a slice of cheddar) on top?

cheddar.. I’ve learned the love of cheddar on apple pie as I grew up.

Mmmm that ties bread for me.

That wasn’t one of the choices, plus both apple pie and vanilla ice cream are gross, so you’re clearly wrong :stuck_out_tongue:

OK, guys, you’ve gotten to me. On Friday morning, there will be warm, fresh Irish soda bread made for a few select friends. Come to think of it, maybe I should make a loaf tonight to let the gentleman know he’s appreciated and to make sure there’s enough to go around. If I start now, it should be ready around the time he comes home.

I’m continuing with the food porn theme. :smiley:

Green tomatoes, picked fresh from the garden, sliced thick, fried in cornmeal, sprinkled with salt and pepper.

I’m torn - hot, fresh, home-baked bread, right out of the oven and steaming hot, with gobs of real butter, or rich, moist, dark chocolate layer cake with thick chocolate icing? Not that I have either. :slight_smile:

Buttered bread, hands down.

Now I’m hungry.

ETA: Now that I’ve read the thread… what **Mahna Mahna ** said!

I’m not much of a sweet tooth, so 9 times out of 10, I’d take the warm bread.
