Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

What's the best dessert you've ever had?
Bananas Foster, prepared on a flaming grill at tableside by the maitre d' of a fancy Phoenix hotel restaurant. Brandy and citrus juice and sugar and cream flamed together, then poured over bananas, done with a really theatrical presentation.

What is even happening?
Churros sound fantastic with hot chocolate. Now I'm hungry, and the store bought chocolate chip cookies ain't cutting it.
Oooh. That's known as Chocolate Muck-Muck at one of the local restaurants. Mmmm, Chocolate Muck-Muck.
Is it like a cake on the outside, and hot and gooey on the inside, Jilli? Scott and I can barely contain ourselves when we eat it. We often go to this restaurant, even when we're not otherwise in the mood for seafood, because of their Fallen Chocolate Cake. One night, they sold out before we ordered dessert. How we suffered.
They made this on America's Test Kitchen a few weeks ago.
Mmmm.
Somebody wrest Lyra Jane away from whatever world has custard in Boston Creme Pie.
Wait, it doesn't?Yeah. I've always thought of it just as a cream, but I don't think custard is an actual wrong description, Gus. It's thinner--less set, than actual baked custard.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Best dessert ever?
Call me fickle, but I could never pick one.

It's boiled creme in Boston Creme Pie, isn't it?

The "cream" in Boston Cream Pie is traditionally thickened with cornstarch rather than egg yolks, and so is not technically a custard, depending on how pedantic you want to be.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I've heard them called Chocolate Lava Cakes and Chocolate Volcano Cakes and they are fantastic.
