Fall is in the Air! I see the golden yellows starting to top all the trees. I’m ready for football, apple cider, cool crisp air, plaid blankets, and pumpkins! I love pumpkins and I love baking with pumpkin! I’m nicely exiting out Summer and welcoming Fall with this wonderfully dense and nicely spiced pumpkin pound cake topped with a sweet rich homemade walnut sauce. Howdy Fall! Come on In!!!
Desserts
To round out this week I wanted to share one of our favorite new frozen treats! Hand dipped chocolate frozen banana’s with toasted almonds! Usually a treat only found at fairs or amusement parks, I decided it was about time we brought this special treat home to roost! They are so “a-peeling!” (You didn’t think I could resist that pun did you?) You are going to love how simple these are to make and you are REALLY going to love how heavenly they are on a warm summer night!
Every perfect beginning deserves a perfect ending! These amazing Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches dipped in Chocolate Ganache and rolled in toasted almonds fits the bill for a perfect ending to our Father’s Day Menu!
Layers of delicious buttery cinnamon sugar corn flakes snuggle a thick slab of creamy vanilla ice cream topped off with a healthy drizzle caramel and chocolate topping! Finish it off with whipped cream and a cherry and you have a superb Fried Ice Cream Cake dessert!
Chocolate Cake Mix is topped off with chopped walnuts and semi-sweet chocolate chips and baked to perfection! A great quick easy dessert your family will love!
Rich Chocolate Cake filled with a fresh strawberry compote, dipped in a scrumptious satin chocolate glaze and finished off with a strawberry whipped cream frosting. The perfect guilty pleasure treat!
In my family growing up, strawberry shortcake was not a dessert! Say What?! You read that right! Grandpa Howard insisted that strawberry shortcake was, in fact, the main course! (There’s a man after my own heart!) So, if you happened to come on a night strawberry shortcake was being served, you best not be looking for chicken and potatoes, because there was none to be had!
