What should I make - cake or pie?!


Question: What should I make - cake or pie!?
I can't decide what to bake today, a cake or pie, or what kind of cake or pie!.

I have about a cup of milk left, 4 eggs, some frozen berries and 3 frozen bananas, a stick of butter, a few cups of half and half, a pound of cream cheese, oil, buttermilk powder, a half cup of sour cream, canned pineapple (crushed, chunk, rings), key lime juice, pudding mixes and jellos, as well as a couple of white and vanilla cake mixes!. I have flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and Dream Whip mix, sweetened and unsweetened cocoa powders, jams, preserves and jellies!.

My daughter and I can't agree on what to make, so I'm opting for somthing new instead of a quick bread, poundcake, key lime pie, pineapple upside down cake, carrot cake, jello poke cake, chocolate cake, or brownies!.

Ideas or recipes anyone!? It has to use the ingredients I have on hand since I'm not going near a store today!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

How about lemon bars!? All you need is sugar, flour, butter, lemon juice, and a few other things!. I can give you a recipe if you need one!. also, since you have lime juice - you could make lime bars instead of lemon bars!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I would make the vanilla cake mix with a box of vanilla pudding mix added to it!. While your cake is baking, place your frozen berries in a saucepot with some butter and sugar and cook that down until you have a luscious berry sauce for your cake!. Then, mix up your Dream Whip to serve on top of your cake with berries!. You could also add in the bananas or crushed pineapple to your berries while they are cooking if you like!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It sounds like you have a well-stocked pantry!. You could make a batch of sugar cookie dough, but instead of making individual cookies, press the dough into a pizza pan, making a large flat cookie!. Beat the cream cheese with some sugar, maybe a little vanilla!. Slice up the bananas and cook them in a saucepan with the berries and a little sugar and a little key lime juice until they're softened!. When the cookie comes out of the oven and is cooled, spread with the cream cheese mixture and top with the berries and bananas!. You can add a drizzle of melted chocolate, some whipped cream, or sprinkle some powdered sugar on top!. Cut into wedges and enjoy!Www@FoodAQ@Com
