You know your weekend went well when you’ve got several new dessert recipes turned out, tasted and crumbs left to clean up by Monday morning.

We may not be able to help you find all your holiday gift surprises, but we can help you find some really wonderful and tasty holiday dessert recipe ideas today. For instance, if you love the taste and flavors of chocolate, coffee, cocoa and Kahlua, you might be interested in making the decadent and tempting jello chocolate Kahlua cake as your holiday treat this year.
I’ve noticed that I’ve been lagging in the homemade dessert department for some time now.
First of all, they bring added pizazz to a meal. Secondly, a little sweetness can go a long way to prevent the dreaded grazing habit and it’s a great bonding dish to create with children who actively seek making stuff with you in the kitchen.
You can liven up any holiday atmosphere when you choose to include jello recipes to your party planning and meal planning projects. Some of them are so easy that even your children may want to help you make the desserts at your house and some of them they can easily make themselves to surprise you. Try this delicious recipe for your next holiday party or social gathering; everyone will be asking you for the recipe so they can make their own wonderful and chocolaty jello cake. The holidays are for celebrating and spending time with family and friends.
Finally, I’ve realized that some of my husband’s fondest memories are about desserts that his mom used to make. But don’t we all? No one reminisces over the canned veggies now do they?
I had it on hand, quietly keeping the flour and sugar company in the pantry. Having no better recipe than the one on the back of the box. My daughter’s got my brownie recipe in her head and went straight for melting the chocolate in the saucepan. (Personally, I think she just likes breaking the bar up into chunks and stirring what looks like Willy Wonka’s chocolate River.) She also got out the eggs, a mixing bowl, un fouet, whisk and flour.
The recipe is quite simple, easy, not difficult (except for whipping les blancs d’oeufs en neige, whipping the egg whites stiff). My daughter practiced her reading (of the recipe) and I got a bicep workout whisking the yokes with the sugar and butter until light yellow. Excellent, reading practice, arm workout, dessert for all in one go.
