Canned fruit with syrup plus boxed cake mix? You must hate your family/guests.

This is the same recipe I use with cherries. Got it from a Trader Joe’s sample station many years ago and it is my most requested dessert! I sprinkle a little cinnamon on top.

Anything with ice cream is only reasonable if you are hosting. Bringing a tub of ice cream or several to someone else’s house isn’t. Great idea. They may not have the freezer space to accommodate

I like fruit crisps better than cobbler or pie for a barbecue. Strawberry rhubarb would be nice at this time of year.
I also like simple cakes like pound cake, chocolate marble cake, etc with ice cream and fresh seasonal fruit.

Melon and Italian cookies are both two great disappointments in the food world.

I do this with fresh or frozen fruit (no syrup) and it is delicious. It is a family favorite...berries, apples, peaches. Anything.


Cobbler is the easiest yummy bbq desert.

Banana pudding, of course!

I make my own vanilla pudding from scratch, add in roasted and caramelized bananas. Layer the banana pudding with Nilla wafers and homemade whipped cream.

Or you could go the easy route and do the same with boxed pudding mix, bananas, and cool whip.

I've had a lot of success with a dirt and worms or jello variation. Sometimes I do little cups but most times I just put it in a large pan. I do different themes depending on the event (think peeps with candy carrots, teddy graham with drink straws and rainbow candy towels etc). For some reason these are hits with kids and adults. Sometimes itsbcut up brownies, cool whip and pudding.
