Answer 4

Bread pudding. It only takes white bread, milk, eggs and some cinnamon and nutmeg. It's a custard dish and tastes great with a little whip topping. Look up a recipe on the internet.

Answer 5

Banana Nut bread is yummy and easy to make. I would also prefer traditional chocolate or vanilla cake with frosting on top. MM.. how about double fudge brownies? Cupcakes are easy too.. and muffins are great.

Answer 6

Believe it or not... a chocolate torte is very simply, doesn't take too long, and looks great (presentation is key). You can find several recipes online. Go for one that isn't marred with complicated toppings. Simple chocolate cake torte... its so good too. Try foodtv.com

Next morning, prepare the last envelope of Lucky Whip (or use 2 cups cool whip) and spread over the top of cake. Sprinkle with coconut and garnish with marashino cherries. Refrigerate until served..

***Option- you can also divide the coconut in half and color half of it green and half of it red for Christmas and sprinkle it on the cake that way. With the red and/or green marachino cherries garnish or with sugar silver balls (sprinkles)
