Good, old-fashioned flavors. Nothing particularly complicated, though since this is a first draft, I know that a lot could use some tweaking.
Peanut butter shortbread. Might be nice with chopped peanuts next time, and perhaps in a thinner layer. Need to consider how to increase the peanut flavor without making it too dry.
Sweetened condensed milk, with 1% salt and 2% citric acid. Stir it all together, and nothing happens. Fold it, and within seconds you have a firm, spreadable, creamy icing. Orange juice would be a fine addition, though I didn't have any.
Ground toffee. Sugar, butter, corn syrup, water: cook to hard crack. Cool and grind in food processor. Would be stellar on ice cream.
Chocolate ganache. Didn't have cream, so 2 parts dark chocolate chips, 1 part butter.
Pretzel crunch. From Momofuku Milk Bar by Christina Tosi. Mini pretzels, brown sugar, sugar, malt powder, milk powder, butter. Rich, sweet, salty, and almost impossible not to snack on while you're making everything else.
