What's a simple Easter dessert recipe to take to a family gathering?!
Answers: Angel food cake is a good light springy dessert. Maybe just add an orange icing and some mandarin oranges or some strawberries and whipped cream or cool whip.
LEMONADE PIE
1 large container Cool Ehip (slightly thawed)
1 6-oz. can frozen lemonade (yellow or pink or limeade), undiluted and thawed
1 can Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk
1 9" graham cracker crust (storebought is fine)
extra Cool Whip for top & Jelly Bellys to decorate top
Mix Cool Whip, lemonade & condensed milk really well; pour into pie crust. Put dollops of Cool Whip around the edges, and tuck some Jelly Bellys into the Cool Whip .... Chill at least 4 hours before serving
The pastel color (either yellow, pink or green) is perfect for Easter and Spring
Bake a plain yellow cake and when it is cooled use a fork and poke lots and lots of holes in the top of the cake. make jello and pour over the cake. refrigerate till the jello congeals and then before you serve cover the cake with Cool Whip. It is a very delicious moist cake
