What are some good dessert recipes that don't require milk?

I am craving a dessert but i have no milk, and im too lazy to go and buy some. Does anyone have an idea. But i don't want something with fruit in it.What are some good dessert recipes that don't require milk?
Big, Super-Nutty Peanut Butter Cookies





Bringing the butter, peanut butter, and eggs to room temperature makes it easier to blend the ingredients. Be sure to grind the peanuts, since whole, and even chopped peanuts tend to slip out of the dough. If using unsalted butter, increase salt to 1 teaspoon. Keep finished cookies refrigerated in airtight container. To restore just-baked chewiness, wrap a cookie in a sheet of paper towel and microwave for approximately 25 seconds. Cool before serving.





2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour


1/2 teaspoon baking soda


1/2 teaspoon baking powder


1/2 teaspoon table salt


1/2 pound butter (2 sticks), salted


1 cup packed dark brown sugar


1 cup granulated sugar


1 cup extra-crunchy peanut butter , preferably Jif


2 large eggs


2 teaspoons vanilla extract


1 cup roasted salted peanuts , ground in food processor to resemble bread crumbs, about 14 pulses (about 1 cup, packed)








1. Adjust oven rack to low center position; heat oven to 350 degrees. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in medium bowl.





2. In bowl of electric mixer or by hand, beat butter until creamy. Add sugars; beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes with electric mixer, stopping to scrape down bowl as necessary. Beat in peanut butter until fully incorporated, then eggs, one at a time, then vanilla. Gently stir dry ingredients into peanut butter mixture. Add ground peanuts; stir gently until just incorporated.





3. Working with 2 tablespoons dough at a time (see illustration 1 below), roll into large balls, placing them 2 inches apart on a parchment-covered cookie sheet. Following illustration 2, press each dough ball with back of dinner fork dipped in cold water to make crisscross design. Bake until cookies are puffed and slightly brown along edges, but not top, 10 to 12 minutes (they will not look fully baked). Cool cookies on cookie sheet until set, about 4 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Cookies will keep, refrigerated in an airtight container, up to 7 days. Makes approximately 3 dozen cookies

Gooey Toffee Butter Cake





Cake:


1 (18.25-oz) box yellow cake mix


1 large egg


½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted





Filling:


1 (8-oz) package cream cheese, softened


2 large eggs


1 tsp pure vanilla extract


1 (16-oz) box confectioners' sugar


½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted


1 cup almond toffee bits or chocolate toffee bits





Preheat the oven to 350º F. Lightly grease a 13”x 9”x2” baking pan.





For the cake: In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the cake mix, egg, and butter and mix well. Pat into the bottom of prepared pan and set aside.





For the filling: Still using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Dump in confectioners' sugar and beat well. Reduce the speed and slowly pour in butter. Mix well. Fold in toffee bits.





Pour filling onto cake mixture and spread evenly. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes. Don't be afraid to make a judgment call on the cooking time, because oven temperatures can vary. You want the center to be a little gooey, so don't bake it past that point!





Remove from oven and allow to cool completely. Cut into small squares. This cake is very, very rich, and a little will go a long way.What are some good dessert recipes that don't require milk?

Tips from the kitchen


Hey Mom!


To easily crush cereal, place in a heavy plastic food storage bag and squeeze like crazy or use a rolling pin. A blender or food processor works well, too.

1/2 teaspoon vanilla


1 1/2 tablespoons instant espresso powder





In a bowl, with an electric mixer (fitted with whisk attachment) on high speed, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until thick and foamy. Gradually add sugar and continue to beat until mixture holds stiff, shiny peaks. Beat in vanilla and espresso powder.


Spoon meringue in 1 1/2- to 2-inch-wide mounds, about 1 inch apart, onto parchment-lined baking sheets.
