2 good southern desserts are peach cobbler, and pecan pie.

For my parents 50th Birthday I threw a Texas themed Surprise party. We live in TX and had family members coming from out of state so I wanted a country theme. We had BBQ, for dessert I made some Cobbler Blueberry and Apple with ice cream, if you can't do a cobbler a pie will work. Red Velvet cake is also big out here.


Hope this helps good luck!

pecans are the state nut, so pecan pie

Cookies(chocolate chips)





* 1 cup butter flavored shortening


* 3/4 cup white sugar


* 3/4 cup brown sugar


* 2 eggs


* 2 teaspoons Mexican vanilla extract


* 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour


* 1 teaspoon baking soda


* 1 teaspoon salt


* 2 cups milk chocolate chips


--------------------------------------鈥?br>




Peanut Butter Brownies





* 2 cups white sugar


* 3 eggs


* 1 cup butter, melted


* 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract


* 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour


* 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder


* 1/2 teaspoon baking powder


* 1/4 teaspoon salt


* 1 cup milk chocolate chips


*


* 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened


* 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter

* 2 tablespoons milk
Triple Chocolate Bundt Cake (always a big hit)





1 (4 1/2 oz.) pkg. chocolate instant pudding mix


1 (2 layer) pkg. chocolate cake mix


1 (12 oz.) bag chocolate chips


1 3/4 c. milk


2 eggs





Combine ingredients in bowl and mix by hand until well blended, about 2 minutes. Pour into greased and floured 12-cup bundt pan and bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until cake springs back when touched. Cool in pan 15 minutes, invert onto plate. When fully cool, sprinkle with powdered sugar.





I'm a big fan of dark chocolate, so I use dark chocolate chips.





Also, I mix a small amount of cocoa powder in with the powdered sugar for dusting the cake when cooled.
Take whole strawberries (washed without greens) and put them in a bowl. Add a bit of sugar to your liking. Next, take a knife and just start cutting from one side of the bowl to the other. This will start cubing the berries. After a few minutes you will have a lovely strawberry shortcake topping. This can then be used for lots of things. You could buy those little dessert cups (the strawberry shortcake type ones) or make busuits and do the shortcakes. Or, I like to make a yellow or white cake and just pour this on top.





or just eat that in a bowl with a touch of whipped cream heh heh heh
Try Chocolate Pudding Pie.

1/2 teaspoon baking powder


1/2 cup butter


3/4 cup caster sugar


2 tablespoons sour cream


1/2 cup milk


3 dessert apples

Peel, core and finely slice the apples. Turn half the mixture into the greased baking tin and cover with half the apples. Add the remaining mixture and arrange the rest of the apples on top. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar and bake for 55 minutes.

Applesauce Cake


(gluten, dairy, corn, soy, egg and rice free)





Ingredients


2 c applesauce (not baby food as these generally have less pectin)


2 c sugar


1 tsp safe baking soda


2 c flour (1 c potato, 1/2 c tapioca, 1/2 c chana or light buckwheat)


1 tsp cinnamon


1/2 tsp nutmeg


1/2 tsp cloves


1 tsp safe baking powder


1 cup sultanas or Thompson seedless raisins


1 c chopped nuts (optional)


1/2 c vegetable oil or melted shortening


Directions


Preheat the oven to 350 掳 F.


Prepare a 9'; x 13'; pan by spraying with a safe vegetable coating, or by greasing it and then dusting with potato flour.


In the medium or large bowl of a mixer, gently blend the applesauce, sugar and soda together.


In a second bowl, sift together the remaining dry ingredients several times to add air into the flours and help them better absorb liquid with retaining grit.


Blend the dry ingredients into the applesauce and sugar mixture in small amounts.


With the last amount of dry ingredients add in the raisins and nuts, if desired.


Finally, blend in the vegetable oil.


Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
Fruit dipped in chocolate, or with whipped cream , sugar or coconut.

CLASSIC MEXICAN FLAN





1/2 c. granulated sugar


1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk


1 c. milk


3 lg. eggs


Yolks of 3 lg. eggs


1/2 tsp. almond extract


1 tsp. vanilla extract





In a small saucepan melt sugar over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until sugar is a dark, caramel-colored liquid. Remove from heat and pour into a 4-cup metal ring mold or 8 individual molds. Quickly turn mold to coat bottom and sides with the caramel. Let cool so caramel hardens. Heat oven to 325 degrees.





Put the condensed milk, milk, eggs, egg yolks and flavorings into an electric blender. Cover and blend to mix well. Pour mixture into mold; put mold in a larger pan filled with water to a depth of 1/2 inch. Bake for 1 hour. Remove from oven and remove mold from water. Cool and then refrigerate up to 2 days. Cover mold with an inverted serving platter. Hold mold and platter together and turn them over. Lift off mold. Caramel will fall as a liquid sauce over the custard. 8 servings.





This rich, caramel custard makes a delicious finale for any traditional Southwestern meal. Its do-ahead feature makes it great party fare too!

QUICK PAN NACHOS





1 large can refried beans


1 lb hamburger


1 package taco seasoning


3-4 cups grated cheddar cheese


1 medium can sliced olives


1 large or 2 med chopped tomatoes


1 bunch green onions chopped


sour cream


guacamole


salsa





Brown hamburger and add taco seasoning as package instructs. While hamburger simmers, spread the refried beans into the bottom of the baking dish and place in the oven under the broiler until beans are hot all the way through.


Top beans with hamburger mixture and then spread cheese evenly over the top.





Place back under the broiler until cheese is melted. Top with green onions, tomatoes and olives.





Cut into wedges and spoon onto a plate, top with sour cream, guacamole and salsa then surround with corn chips.








QUICK HOMEMADE FUDGE





1 12-16 oz. bag cream drop candy


1 cup peanut butter (crunchy or regular)





Microwave cream drops for 2-3 mins until they soften and you can mix them well. Add the one cup peanut butter.


Pour into a buttered dish. If you want nuts in the fudge, use crunchy peanut butter.








QUICK TEX-MEX GOULASH





1/2 lb. elbow macaroni


1 lb ground sirloin


1 small onion, finely diced


2 c. tomato juice


1 pkg McCormick's Taco Seasoning


1 can black beans, drained and rinsed


1 can sweet corn, drained


2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese


sour cream


sliced black olives


chopped green onions





Prepare the macaroni according to the package instructions.


(Note: Do not rinse the noodles. The starch left on them helps bind the goulash so it doesn't get too runny.)





Saute the sirloin and onion in a skillet until the meat is brown and the onions become translucent.





Drain the fat off. Add tomato juice and the taco seasoning to the meat. Bring to a boil then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 10 min.





In a large pot, combine the noodles, meat mixture, corn, beans, and shredded cheese. Allow this to simmer for about 20 minutes or until heated through and the cheese is melted. You may need to add up to a cup more of the tomato juice if it's too dry.





To serve: place a helping of goulash on a plate then garnish with sour cream, black olives, and green onions. It's nice to set the garnishes on the table as when serving tacos. Don't be afraid to use whatever garnishes you'd use on a taco. Some like green peppers, jalepenos, salsa, fresh diced tomatoes, crushed torilla chips, cheddar cheese. Get creative!

A quick and easy meal idea is ';Dinner in Foil.';





For each serving, place one of the following on a large square of heavy-duty aluminum foil:





Boneless chicken breast; boneless pork chop; hamburger patty; salmon steak





Season meat with one of the following: barbecue sauce, teriyaki sauce, Montreal steak seasoning, or soy sauce. Season the salmon with either dill butter, lemon butter, or a splash of lime juice.





Place any or all of the following vegetables around the meat or fish: a peeled and quartered potato; a peeled and sliced carrot; a few pieces of brocolli or cauliflower; some whole mushrooms; a few slivers of red onion; some strips of red or green pepper.





Season the veggies with salt and pepper, and dot with butter. Fold up the sides of the foil to form a tight packet, and bake at 350 degrees until the meat is done and the veggies are tender. This can take anywhere from 25 to 35 minutes, on average.





While the packets are baking, put together an ';Easy Fruit Trifle'; for dessert:





Place a layer of angel food cake or pound cake cubes in your prettiest glass bowl. Add a layer of your favorite fruit: strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, sliced nectarines, sliced peaches, or blackberries are all good choices. Top with a layer of Cool Whip.





Repeat until the bowl is full, ending with a layer of Cool Whip. If desired, garnish with a few reserved berries and a sprig or two of mint. Chill until ready to serve.





**************************





Serve the ';Dinner in Foil'; packets with breadsticks and a green salad. You can vary the menu according to your taste, the possibilities are endless, and clean up is a snap!

It has recipes for quite a few tasty cakes and desserts that can be prepared easily from home ..
Easiest desert I know that looks like you worked hard, LOL, would be to line the bottom of a 8 x 8 dish with vanilla wafers. Slice up 4 bananas. Mix up 2 boxes of instant banana pudding mix, shorting the milk by 1C. Fold in 1C sour cream when pudding has begun to thicken. Fold in banana slices. Pour it all on top of the wafers and refrigerate for an hour or two. Serve chilled, with or without whipped topping. If you use the fat free/sugar free pudding, skim milk, fat free sour cream and lo-fat wafers this is also a good desert for calorie watchers.

6. When cream cools off (and eclairs have cooled off as well), you can begin filling the eclairs: Cut a small slit lengthwise, and then stuff with cream, using your baking sac or a small spoon.


Voil脿!





Icing:





Almost done! Hang in there! Chocolate eclair recipes are well-worth the time they take!!!


1. Melt chocolate with water in a small pot over a low flame.


2. Once melted add butter, whisking the whole time. Should look shiny and creamy!


3. Remove from heat. Spread a thin layer on each eclair, using a spatula.


4. Wait until icing hardens a bit to serve it.


Voil脿! And Bravo!





Tip:





Even if you are making fewer than 20 chocolate eclairs, make the full quantity of dough (it will prepare better!). You can always freeze what you don't use.





Serving Ideas:





Depending on how many people you are serving, you will want to vary the size of your eclairs. Traditionally, chocolate eclair recipes come in three varieties:


Small for large dessert platters.


Medium (what you most often see in the bakery window).


It is also possible, although less common, to make one large eclair. You can serve it on a beautiful dessert plate, and cut it directly on the dinner table!





Whatever you choose, you will be delighted (and so will your guests!) with this magnificent French dessert! Chocolate eclair recipes make everyone smile!!!
