Almost everyone has a weakness for something. Whether it is a show, a special person or animal or in my case…..a sweet tooth.  I am not a very good baker, so I have to get creative to liven up my dessert options at times.

I recently reached out on Face Book and asked what are some of the “go to” recipes that you use.  Here is what I learned.

Go To Recipes

Michohn Lord: Fried tortilla shells with cinnamon and brown sugar

• So good, and so easy.  I do something similar with pie crust dough.  Roll it out, slather with butter, cinnamon and sugar and bake in the over at 350 degrees until it starts to turn a dark brown on the edges.

Jonna Vanderboom: Kid’s favorite, ice cream with sprinkles

• Never go wrong with ice Cream and Sprinkles

Ellen Sanderson: Caramel filled snickerdoodle cookies. Or caramel M&M cookies.

• Since I am not a baker, I will have to wait for Ellen to drop some off.  These sound delicious!

Jennifer Brant: Strawberry Shortcake with Bisquick Shortcakes.

• This sounds incredible easy.  Mix the strawberries in the batter or put on top of the finished cake with whipped topping.  Even I can do that!

Nato S Galloway- Lava Cake

• I am a fan of chocolate!

Helen V Spinelli- Frozen Moose Tracks Yogurt

• Healthier Version of Ice Cream….I think?

Kerri Lee Tanner- Fruit Crumbles

• Kerri added, pick whatever fruit you want.
• I have put the apple pie crust on the bottom of a dish and poured a Bisquick batter over the top.  Even it out, add granola crumble to the top, bake it off and serve with the Ice Cream of your choice.
• Quick, east and tasty!

Erika Evans-Ice Cream

• Again- this is hard to beat!

Sara Gilbert- Sugar Cookies from my Mom.

• Sounds great.  How do I get a hold of your mom to get some? LOL

Not a "sugar cookie" yet these cookies have lots of sugar!

Bryan Vaden- Grilled Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich Sprinkled with Powder Sugar.

• My kids love this. Warm and gooey, almost like a jelly filled donut. I never put the powdered sugar on before, but will from now on!

Here are a couple of my quick “go to” dessert recipes.

• Any frozen candy bar.  Snickers, or M&M’s or whatever you like.  Warning- if you have sensitive teeth, do not do this.  The cold and crunch of the candy may be painful to someone with sensitive teeth!
• Toast 2 Leggo Waffles- spread you favorite Ice Cream on one of them and use the other to make a sandwich.  This is a great Ice Cream Sandwich!  If you prefer a less messy version, use one of the toasted waffles as the base and scoop Ice Cream on top.  Add you favorite toppings and east with a fork and knife.  Quick and easy, and something a little different.
• Frozen bananas are great. I know, most people freeze bananas to use for Banana Bread. I like the texture and sweetness in a frozen banana.  Just like the frozen candy bard, be careful if you have sensitive teeth.

Tell me what I missed and I will update the story.
