Dessert as Dessert

What's better than just having dessert? Combining something that already exists on it's own as a dessert into another one! (Think chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream.) The NYTs has a great recipe up for Jelly Doughnut Pudding.
This is like a better plan than the one time I tried to cook jelly doughnuts french toast style, but it only resulted in an inevitable molten jam explosion.
