Chocolate Chump - Dessert Recipe

Dessert Recipe

What do you do if you need to make a last-minute dessert and you don't have a lot of time to do it? No worries if you have a good, realiable dessert recipe that you can consider your "trademark." It's always nice to have a dessert recipe that you're known for making, too.

Fall Dessert Recipe

As this is being written, fall is upon us and many food web sites are focusing on apple recipes. After all, this is the season, and Johnny Appleseed's birthday is September 26. In honor of that, why not make a Taffy Apple Pizza? This dessert recipe is always a hit in the fall.

Taffy Apple Pizza

1 10-oz. package of refrigerated sugar cookie dough

1 8-0z. package of softened cream cheese

1/4 creamy peanut butter

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

2 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced

1 cup lemon-lime soda

Cinnamon

1/4 cup caramel ice cream topping

1/2 cup chopped honey roasted peanuts

1. Preheat oven to 350.

2. Shape cookie dough into a ball. Place dough in center of pizza pan, flatten slightly with palm of hand, then roll out to 14" circle, about a 1/4" thick.

3. Bake 16-18 minutes.

4. Cool 10 minutes. Carefully loosen cookie from sheet with serrated knife and allow to cool completely.

5. While cookie is baking, combine cream cheese, brown sugar, peanut butter and vanilla; mix well.

6. Spread mixture evenly over top of cooled cookie.

7. Arrange apples evenly over cream cheese mixture; sprinkle with cinnamon.

8. Heat caramel topping in microwave on HIGH 30-45 seconds or until warm; drizzle over apples.

9. Sprinkle nuts on top.

NOTE: To prevent apples from turning brown, dip them in lemon-lime soda.

Although this isn't an official dessert recipe, it is a sweet thing to have on a table:

Pumpkin Dip

2 8-oz. packages cream cheese, softened

1 can (15 oz.) 100% Pure Pumpkin

2 cups sifted powdered sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground ginger

1. Beat cream cheese and pumpkin together in a large mixing bowl until smooth.

2. Add sugar, cinnamon and ginger; mix thoroughly.

3. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

4. Serve with sliced fruit, bite-size cinnamon graham crackers or gingersnap cookies.

Spring/Summer Dessert Recipes

Here are a couple of dessert recipes to get you through spring and summer. This first dessert recipe uses a lot of fruit, so it's a tasty way to get in part of your recommended daily allowance (or just get your kids to eat theirs).

Fruit Pizza

1 18-ounce package refrigerated cookie dough

1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened

1/3 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (or almond, orange, or lemon)

Fresh blueberries, banana slices, apple slices, mandarin orange sections, seedless grapes, strawberry halves, kiwifruit (or any other fruit you want), well drained

1/2 cup orange, peach, or apricot preserves

1 tablespoon water

1. Preheat oven to 375.

2. Shape cookie dough into a ball. Place dough in center of pizza pan, flatten slightly with palm of hand, then roll out to 14" circle, about a 1/4" thick.

3. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract or other flavoring and spread over cookie crust.

4. Arrange fruit over cream cheese layer in any design you want.

5. In a small saucepan over very low heat, make a glaze by heating preserves and water. Brush glaze over fruit, making sure to cover the fruit that will turn dark (like apples and bananas). Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Pineapple Angel Food Cake

1 box of One-Step Angel Food Cake Mix

1 20-oz. can crushed pineapple (in its own juice, not syrup), undrained

Whipped topping for garnish (optional)

6. Garnish with whipped topping and a mint leaf, if desired.
