I am cooking a dessert for a 6 yr old, 11 yr old and 17 year old - Any Ideas?!
I am making Eton Mess for the adults, but think this is a bit too rich for the children - any suggestions that I can do, as far as I am aware they have no allergies!. I can cook so simple recipes are a doddle as are complicated (although don't suggest souffle!)
Any ideas please!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm sure the oldest one would appreciate the Eton Mess and also appreciate being treated as an adult!. For the others, what about a bowl of ice crem and providing them a selection of 'spinkles' - jelly beans, chocolate buttons, hundreds and thousands and the like!? Www@FoodAQ@Com

Eton Mess: YUM
Give them jelly and cream for pudding: you know what kids are like!. Mind you, the 17 year old might want something a bit more exotic!. You could do a rhubarb and blackberry crumble, seeming as it's that time of year!. Utterly delicious, and quick to make!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I agree that calling a 17-yr-old a "child" would be insulting, and they might prefer the dessert you made for the adults!. But, brownies, cookies or Do-It-Yourself Sundaes for the other 2 should be perfect - and you might ask the teenager which dessert they prefer!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
