Any easy desserts for a casual New Years eve?
Answers:
I'm not sure how easy you're looking for - but a favorite for us is Rum cake. There are many different versions, but it consists of mixing egg, water, rum, yellow cake mix, and vanilla pudding all together, and baking it for an hour. It's virtually a 1 bowl mix, and the cake pan. The glaze is water, butter, sugar, and rum boiled together. Very little prep.
angel food cake, strawberries whipped cream. it takes about 20 minutes to make straight out of the box.
or
Ice cream sundays?
BANANAS FOSTER (for two)- In a frying pan, 2 tbsp Butter, 3 tbsp Brown sugar and two bananas sliced length wise and halved. Cook on moderate heat adding rum and a pinch of cinnamon until bananas soften and the sauce begins to thicken (Caramelize). Remove from heat and serve over Vanilla ice cream (in large red wine glasses is nice) and serve immediately.
Trifle - It looks hard but it's super easy.
I layer the following ingredients in a deep bowl.
-sliced Sara Lee pound cake
- vanilla pudding
- crushed Nilla wafers
- whipped cream (real not Cool Whip)
Then I drizzle with a little caramel sauce.
