Dessert to New York is like peanut butter to its jelly, a car to its wheels, lipstick to its lipgloss, they are just the perfect match. Dessert happens to be my favorite part of a meal and New York City is basically the dessert empire. From cookies to cake to milkshakes, NYC has got it all. Here are seven superb desserts in NYC that should be on your summer bucket list.

1. Black Tap Milkshakes.

Not going to lie, the first time I ever saw one of these on my Facebook newsfeed, my mouth legitimately started to water. These milkshakes have become a social media phenomenon that are bringing in people from all over the world come to NYC to try one of these edible masterpieces.

2. Dominique Ansel Bakery's Cookie Shots.

I'm sorry to disappoint some of you, but unfortunately, there is no actual alcohol in this dessert.

3. Levain Bakery's Chocolate Chip Cookies.

These are most definitely the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever tasted in my life. They actually add walnuts into the chocolate chip cookies to give them that extra crunch. But, the walnuts do not take away from the softness and gooey texture you get when you take a bite into one of these. Better go early to snatch one of these because the lines to get these cookies are out the door from opening to closing daily.

4. Spot Dessert Bar's Green Tea Lava Cake.

My two favorite flavors put together, green tea and chocolate! This dessert is the perfect balance of green tea and chocolate. The best part is dipping the oozy, hot lava cake into the chilled, homemade, green tea ice cream. Yum!

5. Max Brenner's Chocolate Fondue Tower.

Who doesn't love fondue?!

6. Cafeteria's Red Velvet Yodels.

These deletable, moist, red velvet yodels are delicious on their own, but this dessert come with a vanilla milkshake on the side. The presentation is to die for.
