warm dessert

Hot served confection

A warm dessert is a sweet course served hot or at elevated temperature rather than chilled or room temperature.

The category includes cobblers, bread puddings, soufflés, and molten chocolate cakes—dishes whose textures or flavors benefit from heat: We'll finish with a warm dessert and coffee.
