****winner gets 10 points****What's the best dessert and its recipe you have ever had?
This is soooooo easy it's really funny,


Buy miniature croissants ready made( they are like 1/2 the size of regular


Fresh Slices strawberries


Sliced bananas


Cool whip


Hershey's syrup


Cut croissants to make sandwiches from them


Add a little of each fruit, and some cool whip, and a little drizzle of syrup, put on sandwich top, sprinkle with powdered sugar


Eat it all up and you'll see what I'm talkin' about


YUM YUMWhat's the best dessert and its recipe you have ever had?
My mom's banana pudding. It has vanilla flavored pudding with bananas. It isn't your regular banana pudding though. The ingredients may sound gross, but It's really good.





Indgredients:


2 boxes vanilla pudding


1 large container Cool Whip


1 can Eagle Brand milk


1 16 oz container Sour cream


2 boxes vanilla wafers


bananas





Follow the instructions on the box for vanilla pudding, and add Cool Whip, Eagle brand milk, and sour cream. Mix well, and set aside. In a separate bowl layer vanilla wafers, and bananas. After a few layers of each, pour a small layer of pudding mixture over it. Then add a few more layers of wafers and bananas, then pour a part of the mixture over it. After all the pudding is gone, cover and chill. It's best if chilled for 24 hours.
For this Holiday? PUMPKIN ROLL!!! Amazing!

Black Forest Punchbowl Cake





Ingredients:


Cake -- see below


Pudding


Cherry Pie Filling


Cool Whip





You can bake a chocolate cake if you really want, but I start with an Enteman's chocolate loaf cake, or Marble loaf. Pound cake or angelfood work too.





Cut the cake into bite sized pieces. Put a layer of cake in the bottom of a punch bowl (if you want a lot of servings) or a trifle bowl (for a smaller amount). On top of that put a layer of cherry pie filling, a layer of chocolate pudding, and a layer of Cool Whip. Make as many layers as you want, as you have stuff for. You can shave some chocolate for a pretty topping, or drizzle some chocolate syrup on the top if you like.





I use 1 loaf cake, 1 or 2 cans of pie filling, 1 package of pudding, 1 8-oz container of Cool Whip in the trifle bowl, or 2 of everything for a punch bowl. Usually I go to a dollar store and get 3 cans of pie filling for $1 each, rather than one big can at the grocery store for about $2.89. Most cans of pie filling are high on juice and skimpy on cherries.





You can also vary this by using vanilla pudding and blue berries, or something like that.





It's pretty and impressive and basically, you made some pudding and cut up some cake.





Apple Spice Cake





Ingredients:


Spice cake mix


Whatever the mix calls for


Apple pie filling





Mix up a spice cake, following the directions on the box, EXCEPT reduce the liquid by half. Pour it into a 9X13 pan, as per the box directions. Add a can of apple pie filling, but not all the juice. Spread the apples out and bake as the box indicates. Again, I use two cans of cheap pie filling, avoiding a lot of the liquid.





You'll have to increase the baking time, checking about every additional 10 minutes. The pie filling makes this a very dense cake, and that's what takes so long to bake. Once the cake starts pulling away from the sides of the pan, it's probably done. If it's too soggy, next time use less of the goo from the pie filling. I sift some powdered sugar on top of this cake, because icing was really just too much.





You can also use chocolate cake and cherry pie filling. This is kind of like a chocolate covered cherry cake. I do put chocolate icing on this one. I used to use Pillsbury Hot Fudge icing, but I can't find it anymore, so whatever chocolate canned icing is on sale. People ask me to bring this one to dinner. Sometimes I make it in mini muffin tins, but you have to spoon out one or two cherries into each little cup then. Too much trouble.
