What are your favorite meat desserts?

Uhh.. yes. A foie gras macaron. Actually, you can do a lot with foie - probably the best route if you want to make something on the sweet end that involves meat. Actually, if you want to play without spending a bunch of dough, sausage that you incorporate maple into could work.. maple sage and cranberry? Make individual nice shapes and top with a not very sweet cranberry compote? Hmm..The Vosges bacon bar you could adapt into things. Take the bars and bash them up to add into other desserts... pancakes? That would be fun actually. Silver dollar sized on a small plates with some caramelized sliced banana that you did in butter, a bit of coconut sugar, some rum. Or just cook up crispy bacon and use that with really nice bashed chocolate in place of the Vosges. I have a custom ice cream for my butchers get that incorporates a few of their products - how I came up with it was just thinking outside of the box. Basically just what is good on a plate at dinner time that tastes nice if something sweet hits it. Like, turkey and cranberry, etc. and then starting to experiment. |

Candied bacon or chocolate dipped bacon? Bacon is meat candy. |

I know exactly what you mean by meat "dessert." Sometimes I get an urge for something post-meal (not often, though). I've taken a thick slab of good, imported liverwurst -- the fancy kind from Whole Paycheck with the chunks of lard in it -- and spread pastured butter on top. It's like meat cake! |

Any desert made from gelatin? Not quite meat, but it comes from animals. Beyond the usual idea to mix it with fruit juice. Try making a very strong coffee, sweeten it a bit more than usual and mix in with gelatin powder than throw it in the fridge overnight. Serve with whipped coconut milk. |

This was such a puzzling question, the only thing I have heard of that has a direct meat product would be chocolate covered bacon or - maybe crumbled over an egg custard? Or prosciutto melon balls? I did google meat based desserts (because of the idea of this fascinated me) and found something that is almost paleo (has a little bit of rice flour and sugar) but it is a Turkish dish that is basically a chicken pudding. I don't think I will make it but maybe someone could give it a try? http://www.theatlantic.com/life/archive/2009/08/recipe-tavuk-g-s/23382/ The picture of it looks pretty though! But I am imagining vanilla pudding or something lol. Maybe otherwise some sort of sweet meatball - but the sugar would be up in all of these. Maybe some ground meat stuffed into a date and baked? Or baked pears with bacon.. the meat would still kind of be the side show in these, but not in that chicken pudding! |

If gelatin is counted as meat, then definitely panna cotta. Also sometimes I make bacon brittle, which is peanut brittle minus peanuts plus bacon and cayenne. I've also made penuche with bacon, but I find the brittle preferable because of the better meat/sugar ratio. |

Huh? Why call it dessert, if it's meat? |

I've made liver mousse by food processing lightly cooked liver with cocoa powder, sweetener, and coconut milk to desired consistency. |

For me, it's jerky or summer sausage or meat sticks. Items that aren't "pure" enough to eat a full portion but make a delightful mouthful or two. I usually have them as appetizers, though, while I'm fixing the main course. |
