A DESSERT (FOOD) HAS TWO OF THE LETTER "S"

You would want to get dessert twice, and only cross a desert once. The number of S's in the word can help you remember.

Another way to remember how to spell dessert and desert is to think about which you would want more of. You would want more dessert because dessert has 2 S's and desert only has 1 S.
