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

Ice Cream Cone with Candy Sprinkles

Always a good choice!

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!

Ice Cream- MMMMM!

Tiramisu ice cream. Ice cream with coffee, chocolate, sponge cake pieces

Sara Gilbert- Sugar Cookies from my Mom.

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

Valentine cookies

Yummy Cookies

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.
