Churros (i think everyone likes those) :) , tres leches cake (I've had it before, it's okay, but not something I would eat again!.!. it basically tastes like soggy cake drenched in milk!.), and my absolute FAVORITE: Mexican Wedding Cakes- better known as russian tea cakes/balls or butter nut balls!. SO delicious and SUPER easy!. Lots of fun too!.
I did something that sounds just like what you're doing- Spanish party- my job to bring dessert!. These Mexican Wedding Cakes were a hit- but my friend's Churros were the class favorite!. But I couldnt tackle making those!.!. too difficult! If you want something easy and pretty, go for the wedding cakes (Russian Tea Cakes/Balls)
Look it up- lots of recipes on the web!.
Have fun and good luck! :)
(If you're unsure what they are, type in Russian Tea Cakes in Google images!. Lots of pictures to give you an idea---- it's like a nutty type cookie, roll it in a ball, bake, and roll in powdered sugar!. They look like little snow balls! Yummy! :)))Www@FoodAQ@Com
