Hmm, I don't have much of a sweet tooth, and my opinions, too, change on any given day.
But at the moment ...
Homemade chocolate-chip cookies
Ice cream from Louisville's Comfy Cow
Panna cotta
Really good New Orleans-style bourbon bread pudding
Mmmm, let me think ... Something stuffed in a pastry. Profiteroles, maybe, or a really good cannoli.
