I need ideas for a sweet treat for a bunch of guys...no "women" food (i.e. cup cakes, tea time cookies)

Answer 1

Scotcharoos

In a heavy sauce pan bring the following to a gentle boil
1 cup of white sugar
1 cup of Light Corn Syrup (Karo)
when they are gently boiling stir in
1 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter.
remove from heat and mix well,
Add in
6 cups of Rice Krispies
Put into a 9x13 pan, even out the top and let cool

When cool in a smaller sauce pan melt
1/2 bag of chocolate chips
1/2 bag of butterscotch chips
spread over bars and let top harden
These are awesome!!

The guys love it. My hubby always takes for work potlucks and my son constantly had me make it for the wrestling team (they had to eat them on the down-low of course, at least those cutting weight did)

Answer 2

Well you are not to get recipes from me as I would get someone to do the cooking, or go buy it someplace.
I am not much into desserts, never eat cakes or cookies. But if I had to pick, what is better and more patriotic then "Moms Apple Pie"? Really want something really sweet, try Pecan Pie. Not as sweet how about a Key Lime pie? Or a huge Banana Split.

Answer 3

I"ve never met a man who doesn't love Banana Pudding. How about a big pan of that?


Not Yo Mama’s Banana Pudding

2 bags Pepperidge Farm Chessmen cookies
6 to 8 bananas
2 cups milk
1 (5-oz) box instant French vanilla pudding
1 (8-oz) package cream cheese, softened
1 (14-oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12-oz) container thawed Cool-Whip, or sweetened whipped cream

In a bowl, combine the milk and pudding mix and blend well using a handheld electric mixer. Using another bowl, combine the cream cheese and condensed milk together and mix until smooth. Fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture. Add the cream cheese mixture to the pudding mixture and stir until well blended. Set aside.

Line the bottom of a 13x 9x 2” dish with 1 bag of cookies and layer sliced bananas on top.

Pour the mixture over the cookies and bananas and cover with the remaining cookies. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Answer 5

A big sloppy-gooey chocolate cake with fudge frosting... sheet-cake style so they can hack hunks out of it. Have a tub of vanilla ice-cream handy too. Assuming you're not going to wait on them, right? Keep it simple & keep it chocolate!

Answer 6

Chocolate brownies with ice cream drizzled with fudge sauce and caramel sauce .. sprinkle nuts on it. You can serve it up big. Guys like to think they are eating something their wife or girlfriend wouldn't let them unless at a restaurant every blue moon.

Answer 7

I'd like a fairy cup of tea and a nice cake.

Answer 8

Cheesecake!

Answer 9

If there's such a thing as a manly dessert it's pie, guys like PIE. Apple, Cherry, Bluberry etc.

Answer 10

Cookies, pies, cakes, ice cream, and especially brownies. Don't cut stuff in little itty-bitty pieces either.
