I’ve tightened it up a bit, and included what was missing in the original instructions. Comments about your own experiences with this are much appreciated. This one is a definite keeper ~ thanks again to reneelkaslasy for its invention!

He replied “Pumpkin Pie ice cream!” so I came up with this. It tastes like the last bite of pumpkin pie when the whipped cream has melted with the pie making a pie/cream slurry. Yum!

Many teenagers are drinking coffee. So I combined the two things and come up with an amazing cookie. I send my experimental cookies to school with my son, this one needed no tweaking. It was a huge hit. I know your family will love it also.

She said the name is because “it’s what you serve when the Bishop comes to tea.” She wasn’t British, but, like me, was an Anglophile, and a great cook. Excellent toasted, if they get stale, but mine never lasts that long. My husband and I can easily polish off 1 loaf in an evening. Great with a hot cup of tea or coffee, or even a glass of milk! If you don’t want to use marashino cherries, you can substitute dried cranberries or cherries.

Using fudgey brownies as a base, instead of cake, gives the trifle a decadent quality. There is a lot of flexibility for the busy cook. You can make the brownies, cherries and pudding the day before serving and assemble everything ahead of time or at the last minute.

Plus, there’s no long list of ingredients, no complicated prep, and no mixers or food processors to clean afterward, so you’ll have more time to relax and savor the holidays! The dough and frosting will also chill happily in the fridge until you have time to bake another batch.

This recipe accompanies our You’re Doing It All Wrong video with pastry chef Boris Portnoy. This is his approach, but he encourages everyone to experiment with the spices you may like. Boris’s pumpkin pie is a bit spicy, so if you think you might like something more tame, drop the pepper and the citrus peels.

I tinkered with a simple apple dessert recipe to come up with this crumble, adding walnuts, cookie crumbs, spices and yummy spiked whipped cream. Easy to prepare, it tastes and smells like heaven. For a child-friendly version, omit the rum from the whipped cream and increase the vanilla to 1 teaspoon. Either way it is the perfect holiday treat!

I created this decadent cobbler so that it is reminiscent of her pecan pie, serves twice as many, plus I added flavors of a traditional holiday bon bon. Delicious!

First, the ingredients must be found in the grocery store down the street. (Searching hours for a gourmet ingredient isn’t on my holiday list!) Second, the ingredients need a long shelf life so I can whip up a showy dessert when friends drop by unannounced. Third, a make-ahead is a plus, and of course quick and easy. Fourth, it gets points for being nutritious. Plus, our household doesn’t want too rich, gooey, sweet or heavy after a Holiday dinner. And lastly, unique in flavor and texture so that guests respond with “Mmmmmmmm, this is wonderful…I like the…” With Blueberry Vanilla-Nutmeg Pudding Crisp, every guest finds their own treasure: a hint of orange, the fond memory of nutmeg, a nut lovers crunchy paradise, or the gourmet wondering why they hadn’t added a crunchy crisp to pudding. No matter what their treasure is, my treasure has been to develop an easy recipe that fulfills all my Holiday Dessert requirements along with delighting my palate and tummy! Enjoy!

I’ve put frosting on brownies in the past to dress them up a bit, and I thought that topping brownies with a peppermint buttercream would be delicious. Deciding to cover the buttercream with a fudgy chocolate frosting took the dessert to another level and reminded me a lot of peppermint patties. My husband loved the brownies and has requested them many times since I first made them almost four years ago. I usually bake the brownies in a 9×9 pan, but for a more formal presentation, I use a 9-inch springform pan and cut the brownie into wedges. The decadent richness, peppermint flavor, and attractive appearance of the torte (with the contrasting layers of fudgy brownie, creamy white buttercream, and chocolate frosting) make it a wonderful dessert for the holidays; sprinkling finely crushed candy canes on top of the chocolate frosting adds another festive element.
