Dessert is certainly the sweetest taboo in a weight conscious town such as Los Angeles but alas we all surrender at some point.  Thus if you are going to give into passion for dessert then go to the following highly recommended restaurants for ice cream, bread pudding, sweet potato pie and more.  The Los Angeles Comfort and Soul Food Examiner presents the best desserts in Los Angeles and the surrounding area.

Top Dessert Restaurant Honors:  Ms Peaches located in North Hollywood gets top billing for having the best desserts.  They have a wide range of desserts to please almost any dessert lover.  My favorite dessert at the establishment are the Gooey Butter Cake and the Banana Pudding which is only served on the weekends is an absolute must have.  Gooey Buttercake has a bottom layer of buttery yellow cake and a top layer of either of egg and cream cheese, or butter and sugar.  Ms. Peaches also gets nods for their very homemade tasting Red Velvet Cake and Sweet Potato pie.

Banana Split:  Cool off with a Banana Split at Granville Cafe in Downtown, Burbank.  The Banana Split is a sharable dessert for two or three people. The bananas are brulee’d. The dessert also consists of hand crafted Tahitian vanilla, dark chocolate and black  chip ice cream, Port-poached cherries, caramel and Kahlua chocolate sauce with whipped cream and pecan brittle.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Torte:  Ladies, if you have chocolate cravings and you don't want to feel like a kid because you want a peanut butter cup.  Market City Cafe located in Downtown Burbank ups the ante on the comfort snack favorite with their divine chocolate peanut butter torte.

Bourbon Bread Pudding:  Les Sisters located in Chatsworth offers a bread pudding which is drunk with flavor.

Buttermilk PieLes Sisters has another top dessert offering in the form of the Dana's Buttermilk pie also known as chess pie in some parts of the country is hands down the best dessert and is the house favorite.  Buttermilk pie is a custard pie with a graham cracker crust.

Pumpkin Cobbler:  Hill Street Cafe located in Burbank gets an "A" for originality with the Pumpkin Cobbler.  Sweet Potato and Pumpkin connoisseurs are often at often at opposite ends of the spectrum about flavor.  Being a sweet potato purist, I must say this will really remind sweet potato pie lovers of their favorite dessert yet pumpkin lovers should still be pleased.
