Answer 1

BANANAS FOSTER (for two)- In a frying pan, 1 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.

Answer 2

Check out a Betty Crocker or Better Homes and Gardens cook book for what is called a "Rich Pastry Dough" recipe. I add 3 tbs. of cream cheese to that. Refrigerate to harden and then roll out to the size of an average pie crust circle. Spread a 1/2 of a small jar of any fruit jam you like leaving about an inch-2 inch border. Fold over the remaining dough and add more jam if you like w/out 'overflowing'. Bake at 350 till golden. The jam will bubble and thicken during cooking. When cool slice in triangle wedges and enjoy.

Notes:

This is called a Crostata and is a very simple Italian desert.

To dress this up you can also sprinkle pine nuts or slivered almonds on top.

Do not use jelly...it does not work as well as Jam in the sense that jelly gets too liquid when heated.

The final product is kind of like an open face pop tart...only much better.

Enjoy!

Like Mikethebeast said - it's difficult to answer without knowing what types of desserts you like, but one of my all time favs is simple and delicious. It's called 'Peanut Butter Pie' and here's what you'll need:

1 - chocolate crumb cookie crust (you can make your own or buy one - Keebler is good, but Oreo is the best)
1/3 cup p-nut butter (I like creamy or u can use chunky if you prefer)
1 - 8oz. pkg cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
1 8oz. tub Cool Whip

First mix together p-nut butter, cream cheese and powdered sugar using a hand mixer until smooth, then fold in Cool Whip by hand with a spatula. Pour mixture into the pie crust, cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours until set. Personally, I like to put mine in the freezer and then cut and eat it frozen. Just before serving, you can drizzle some chocolate sauce over it , dust it with cocoa powder or shaved chocolate for a nice presentation. I've made this for get-togethers and family holiday dinners, I never have any left to take home!
