Browse the Ugly Dumpling dessert menu — the creamy NY Style Cheesecake, the indulgent Peanut Butter Bomb, the warm Chocolate Chica Lava Cookie and scoops of rotating Ice Cream. Three signature desserts plus a daily flavor — all designed to close out a dumpling-and-wok dinner on a sweet note.
Dessert at Ugly Dumpling is a deliberate category — not an afterthought list of generic sweets, but four items that each earn their place on the menu. The NY Style Cheesecake is the crowd-pleaser: recognizable, creamy, with a graham-cracker crust that holds its structure to the last bite. The Peanut Butter Bomb is for the table that wants something bold — a chocolate shell cracked open to reveal a peanut-butter cream filling.
The Chocolate Chica Lava Cookie is a warm dessert served fresh from the oven — a molten-center chocolate cookie that's best eaten within minutes of arrival. It's the kind of dessert that justifies leaving room after a full table of dumplings and wok dishes. And the rotating Ice Cream ($5) covers the table's lighter appetites — ask your server for today's flavor.
Three of the four desserts are priced at $8, making a shared dessert round one of the better-value ways to close a group dinner. At $5, the Ice Cream is the right call when the table is full but one person still wants something sweet.
Three signature items and a rotating ice cream — the full sweet menu.

The right dessert and drink pairing turns the last course into the most memorable one.
The Chocolate Chica Lava Cookie paired with an Brown Sugar Boba is the sweetest combination on the menu. The brown sugar caramel notes echo the deep chocolate of the cookie. Order the boba first — it arrives faster and you'll want something to sip while the cookie bakes.
NY cheesecake is rich and dense — a cold, citrus-forward drink cuts through the fat and prevents palate fatigue. Lemon Tea with the NY Style Cheesecake follows the classic "citrus + cream" logic of a lemon cheesecake, but keeps the two components separate so each shines independently.
The roasted, slightly bitter notes of a classic Milk Tea cut through the sweetness of the Peanut Butter Bomb the same way black coffee cuts through a peanut butter cup. The tannins in the tea act as a palate reset between bites.
The Chocolate Chica Lava Cookie is made to order and baked fresh. It takes a few minutes longer than the other desserts — order it when you place your main course so it arrives at the right time. The molten center is time-sensitive: eat it within 2–3 minutes of arrival before the lava sets.
All four desserts are single-portion items but are designed to be shareable at a table of two or three. The Peanut Butter Bomb in particular works well as a table split — it's rich enough that half a portion per person is satisfying. The Cheesecake is the easiest to split cleanly.
