Forgive me for my ignorance, but I don't really understand this joke... Is it something to do with the first 2 not knowing the preference of the others? EDIT:

If either of them didn't want dessert they would know that not all of them wanted dessert.

Yes. If they personally didn't want it, they'd say "no". As they're uncertain about the others, they say they don't know. Then the final person knows the others all want yes, and personally wants yes, so says yes. It's like lazy evaluation of booleans in if statements.
