Fun dessert that my mom use to do with us was colored rice krispies. we would change the color o the marshmallow a whole bunch on colors and they where quick. it was also the way my mom got us to eat dinner. we would make them when she made dinner and then we new they would be done by the time we finished dinner. You can find the recipe for rice krispies treats in either a marshmallow bag or on the box. And then just add food coloring t what color yo want.





You can also get a regular box of chocolate brownies and mix those up. After you put them in the pan you sprinkle chocolate chips on top and bake them that way. they come out really good.What are your all-time favorite dessert recipe minus family secret recipes?
Minus secret recipes, it would be tea cookies. I baked them for a literature class project, and they were very good and easy to make. I usually skip brushing on the egg whites and add extra cinnamon. 350F was too hot though and they turned out better when I baked them at 325. I don't know if it's just my oven though.
My husband, while a great cook, doesn't bake. He leaves that to me. lol He did, however, find a few recipes online that have become family favorites. I'll be nice and share them. lol

I invented this one when the summer farm stands were full of fresh fruit that I could afford - starving art student.

Slice and layer in a tall or parfait glass. Colorful and delicious.
look up on google: how to make fried oreos, its REALLY GOOD. TRUST ME
I love dark chocolate cakes (all kinds) and i like to combine the bottom with choco cake and above put some mousse, for example coffee, toffee, ice cream, etc. I love cheesecakes, and I like non traditional ones like sabayon and cardamom cheesecake, apple cheesecake, all cheesecakes with mocha, chocolate, fruits, etc but I like the recipes that are frozen cheesecakes with no cooking in the oven. I also like simple fruit mixes (not macedonia) just the fruits peeled and cut in pieces as watermelon, melon, berries, strawberries, cranberries, apple, orange, kiwi, peach, plum, pomegrate,etc.


I love ice creams and creamy pastries. Well in fact, there is only one thing , two actually which i dont like. The rest, I like it all. I dont like chocolate with mint. I find it is like eating tooth paste.And I dont like chocolate icecreams unless it is a very good dark chocolate one with nuts or sthg like this.
Strawberry Shortcake


But the short cakes are the Bisquick recipe. And the whipped cream is made from scratch. That's about the best.
our family loves homemade ice cream..every gathering we have at least 2 or 3 freezers full.





Here's my recipe:





one small tub of cool whip


one can of sweetened condensed milk (like Eagle Brand)


half gallon of milk ( whole or 2%- NO SKIM)


2 tsp. vanilla





(at this point, it is vanilla, if you want banana, use 3 ripe bananas, strawberry, use a quart of strawberries, if you want chocolate, substitute regular milk with chocolate milk and only use 1 tsp of vanilla)





beat cool whip, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and fruit (if added) until uniform..fold into 1/2 gallon of milk and stir.





Place in ice cream freezer, and layer the freezer bucket with ice and rock salt until it comes to the top of your bucket, make sure that the hopper can still turn...let it go until the freezer stops.





drain off water and repack ice to keep it cold.





covering it with a towel will help insulate it as well.
I love chocolate so much. I make a chocolate cake and add a can of cherry pie filling to the mix and bake. Top with chocolate frosting and chill before serving. I love the icing cold.





For a good summer dessert, I buy an angel food cake and slice horizontally in 3 layers. Mix a small container of cool whip, a container of yoplait yogurt and fresh fruit cut up. Top each layer and stack them. On top of the cake, top with mixture and garnish with fresh fruit.





Easy jello salad...small container of cool whip, box of dry jello, small container of cottage cheese and a small can of crushed pineapple.
What's better than an all American apple pie, with a dip of vanilla ice cream, a classic dessert.
Oh! I love dessert! Sometimes I think I could just skip the whole meal and just eat dessert. I have so many recipes. My favorite has to be cheesecake. Some of my favorite sites for getting great dessert ideas are:


eaglebrand.com


pauladeen.com


foodnetwork.com


allrecipes.com


recipezaar.com





While on eaglebrand.com check out the fudge page. There cookies and cream fudge is to die for. It is like heaven. Yum. They also have great pie recipes. On pauladeen.com, my favorites our the brown sugar chewies. They are also so simple. You can't get any simple than those. They are also pretty cheap to make and I am willing to bet you already have the ingredients in your cabinets. Give them a try, you won't regret it. I also like Paula's fudge pie recipe. It too is such an easy one. Sites like recipezaar and allrecipes are also such excellent resources. You can type in anything and get hundred's if not thousands of recipe's for what you are looking for. For example, on recipezaar I typed in cheesecake and got 2,256 recipes. You are sure to find anything that you might be looking for on there. If you want, I would suggest setting you up an accout on sites like recipezaar and foodnetwork. It's free and you can put any recipes you like into a recipe box to pull up any time you want. I love it! Also, check out crisco.com. There recipe for tuxedoed strawberries is out of this world good!!! Also, any ingredient that you like, such as cool whip, they almost always have a site that uses their product in the ingredient list and you can find some awesome recipes. I sincerely hope that this will help you out! I love to cook and I know you are going to find some great stuff! :) Have a great day and God Bless! :)
I'm a sucker for anything choclate anytime. In the summer my favorite desert is a fresh peach cobbler with melted vanilla ice cream!!! YUM-O!!!
Jello salad





Make up a batch of cherry jello and put in a glass cake pan with a can of Queen Anne cherries (save the juice)





Once the jello is solid cover with whipped cream cheese. Refridgerate again.





Make orange jello using the juice instead of water. Cool until nearly solid and pour over the cream cheese (pour over the back of a spoon the cheese doesn't come up). Then add 1 jar of sliced spanish olives (green)





Yes, you HAVE to use the olives. That's what makes it traditional.


I'm the third (possibly fourth) generation in my family to make this salad.

My mom is the best baker, she makes the best ginger bread and you eat it w/ whipped cream, yummy. But another good recipe is Paula Deen's gooey butter cake. You can get it at food.com. My favorite version chocolate and peanut butter
I like to remake icecream. You get any plain icecream, let it melt a bit, add some stuff and re-freeze it. I like to add, say, cushed up ginger nut biscuits, or maybe some liqueuer, like cherry liqueuer and some real cherries. Or orange zest with Cointreau. Or honeycomb, cookie dough, nuts, the possibilities are endless. One day I might get an icecream maker, but for now this is pretty fun. If you're entertaining kids they love to help make it. The only bad thing is, you have to do it the day before you want to eat it! aaarrrrgggg
