I need to make a thanksgiving dessert!!!!?

Question

I need a fun dessert that little kids would love to eat. no cupcakes or cookies. no pumkin pie either they are very picky.

Answer 1

Have you thought of stopping by your local supermarket for a cake? Ice cream cake? I bought a holiday mold for baking in the shape of 1 inch gingerbread men and I am making brownies in them for one of my desserts. Can't go wrong with jello. Chocolate mousse in pretty cups with whipped cream. Go to a pastry shop and get some goodies there. Good luck.

Answer 2

How about Banana Pudding? Look at the back of a Nabisco Nilla Wafer box and follow the recipe - always a big hit for all ages. Or, how about fruit loop balls? Choc. dipped fruit on a stick? Buy an inexpensive fondue fountain and some dark choc., adda bowl of fruit and lay out toothpicks. They will love the idea and have fun dipping their fruit.

You can always bake some brownies or cocoa rice crispies balls, and give them peices of candy to decorate the brownie and make it look like a turkey. Not only will it be tasty, but they will have fun decorting.

Twinkie Delight. My mom makes it and it is great. Buy twinkies, whip cream and vanilla pudding....in a larger pan and/or bowl, place a layer of twinkles, a layer of vanilla pudding and a layer of whip cream and keep layering until your out, or you have enough layers. It is really good!
