Amazing Recipes Anyone Can Make
A collection of amazing, made often and LOVED dessert recipes.
Peach Cobbler Dump Cake Canned peaches and their juice bake beneath a buttery cake-mix topping. Keep the layers separate, spread the butter thinly over the dry mix, and let the filling settle for ten minutes before serving. This is a spoonable dessert with soft peaches underneath a crumbly topping, rather […]
Chocolate Toffee Crunchies A thin layer of brown-sugar toffee topped with chocolate and chopped nuts. Cook the toffee to hard-crack stage, then let both layers set completely before breaking it into pieces. The toffee forms the bottom layer; chocolate melts over it while it is still hot, and chopped nuts […]
Dorset Apple Cake A cinnamon apple cake made by rubbing butter into the flour, then folding in diced apples. Serve a slice warm with custard, or let it cool for tea. Small pieces of apple run through this cinnamon cake. Weigh the fruit after peeling and coring so the batter […]
Old-Fashioned Buckeye Dip A dense peanut-butter and cream-cheese dip with mini chocolate chips and a firm chocolate shell. Chill until set, then break the topping with a spoon and serve with sturdy dippers. This dip borrows the peanut-butter and chocolate combination from buckeye candies without the rolling and dipping. The […]
Pumpkin Spice Crumb Cake Pumpkin cake with cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves, topped with buttery crumbs and a milk glaze. Let the cake cool before drizzling so the glaze stays on top. The cake, crumbs and glaze are mixed separately, so set out three bowls and keep their ingredients apart. […]
Copycat DoubleTree Cookies Chewy chocolate-chip cookies with optional walnuts and lightly crisp edges. This hotel-inspired adaptation is not Hilton’s official recipe; allow 30 minutes to chill the dough. These cookies use a butter-and-brown-sugar dough with plenty of chocolate chips. Walnuts add crunch if you include them. The recipe keeps the […]
Easy Apricot Shortbread Buttery shortbread bars with a thick apricot filling and a crumbled dough topping. Let the tray cool completely before lifting it out and cutting into squares. One dough makes both the base and the topping. Press half into the lined tin, spread the apricot filling over it, […]
Classic Buttermilk Scones Small, lightly sweet buttermilk scones made with cold butter and self-raising flour. Handle the dough gently and serve warm with butter, jam or cream. Cold butter and a light touch matter more here than a mixer. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips, keeping the […]
Golden Syrup Gingerbread Golden syrup and brown sugar sweeten this soft ginger-and-cinnamon cake. Warm the syrup mixture gently, let it cool to lukewarm, then mix and bake in an 8-inch square tin. Golden syrup gives this gingerbread its caramel sweetness, while ground ginger and cinnamon provide the spice. Sunflower oil […]
Mini Chocolate Cheesecakes These small baked cheesecakes have a digestive biscuit base and a smooth milk chocolate filling. Make them ahead so they have time to chill before serving. A standard muffin tin makes ten individual cheesecakes, with no slicing needed. Paper liners help lift them out once they are […]
