There is nothing as fulfilling as serving the family some scrumptious dessert after a hearty meal.

Even when guests have a meal in your house, a well-prepared dessert actually, can add a couple of feathers to your chef’s cap!

But then questions arise – are there easy dessert recipes available, which can be made with the least effort and yet can turn out delicious? What about using flour in a dessert recipe – are my guest allergic to flour? Or, will the taste of flour be too overwhelming?

There is nothing to worry, if you are looking out for easy dessert recipes which can be conveniently made without using an iota of flour. In fact, you do not even have to look for grandma’s diaries for flour-free easy dessert recipes.

Here are a few easy dessert recipes which you can try out today:

Recipe #1: Mary’s Favorite!

The banana split cake is one of the most common easy dessert recipes, which does not even need baking! (Forget your diet though!)

To prepare this delicious dessert you need, 5-7 bananas, 3 sticks butter, 1 large container of whipping cream – whipped until stiff, 1 bottle of red maraschino cherries, half-cup of crushed pecans, 2 cups crushed crackers/biscuits 1 medium can crushed pineapple along with its own juice – drain well, 2 cups powdered sugar (Icing Sugar, confectioners’ sugar) and 2 eggs.

Start by beating the eggs, 2 sticks of butter, and powered sugar for 15 minutes = mixture 1 – Set aside. Then mix 1 stick butter and cracker/biscuit crumbs. Pat this mixture into a 13 x 9-inch pan. Taking care to spread mixture 1 over crust then cover with sliced bananas. Then add the well-drained pineapple now over the bananas and then be covered with whipped cream. Now you have to sprinkle pecans over top, placing a cherry in each section of about the size you plan to serve.

One of the most popular and easy dessert recipes is ready to serve after you have refrigerated it for several hours!

Recipe #2: DeDe’s – Diet What Diet Dessert!

This is yet another easy dessert recipe which also does not require any baking.

In fact this Chocolate Éclair cake is as easy as a walk in the park (4 Extra rounds after eating this DeDe Says haha!)

All you need to do is to butter a 13 x 9-inch dish, and then line the bottom and sides with whole crackers (fewer calories) or Chocolate Biscuits (more Calories)

Next mix one 6-ounce package of instant French vanilla pudding with 3 cups of whole milk and blend for 2 minutes. Next Whip a Large container of Cream until thick and add it to the vanilla pudding. Pour an adequate layer of the mixture over the crackers/biscuits, then add another layer of crackers/biscuits, then more pudding mixture, finally topping with your crackers/biscuits.

All you need to do now is to frost with fudge icing which can also be made very easily:

Mix ¾ cup of sugar and ¼ cup of honey, 1/8 teaspoon of salt, 1/3 cup cocoa or melted chocolate and ¼ cup of milk. Then bring the mixture to a boil and cook for 1 minute, after which you remove it from heat. Then add ¼ cup butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla flavoring.

Allow it to cool, after which you can beat until it acquires a smooth and thick texture, enough to spread over the top of the crackers/biscuits

Please refrigerate it for 24 hours before serving.

So you see, dessert recipes can be easy, simple, delicious and oh yes, calorie laden, HOWEVER, if you are making a fantastic dinner for a special occasion, then why not have a great dessert.

See you around that park; I’ll be doing those extra laps with you!

Easy Dessert Recipes

If you think that low fat dessert recipes would have a tendency to be boring and tasteless, you are not alone. Like you, there are hundreds of dessert lovers who feel that a real dessert should ideally be full of fat and every other sinful element – or else, how can it be called a dessert?

The trick to make low fat dessert recipes tastier and memorable has a lot to do with the some techniques of cooking rather than the elements that you put in them. Here are some tips to make low fat dessert recipes unforgettable, yet healthy for not just the weight watchers but for the rest of the family too:

The best way to ensure that you are having low fat dessert recipes is to make them at home instead of buying them out. Ready-to-eat desserts bought from stores can prove to be unhealthy for you – full of sugar, salt and fat.
It is perfectly possible to reduce the quantum of fat like oils and butter used to cook the low fat dessert recipes by half or even one-third by using 80% fat reduced Cream cheese, Fat reduced Cream and other low fat products.  You can even buy fat reduced frozen pastry! You might feel the difference the first time, but from then onwards, you would not even feel that you have used less than half of the fats or less recommended in the original recipe.  It is all about careful and planned substitution.
A perfect way to cook low fat dessert recipes is to use fresh fruits. Not only do they add color but ensure that the quantum of fat used is low, while retaining the taste of the dessert.
Why not replace ice creams with yoghurt, when you are particular about low fat dessert recipes? The same kind of flavors can be used in yoghurts as you use in ice creams. Moreover, yoghurt after a meal always helps in better digestion.
If you are overtly concerned about the fat content in your desserts, use nuts which are lower saturated than the higher ones. Remember, nuts are beneficial to your health, but you do not have to go overboard with them. You need to chop the nuts very finely, so that your low fat dessert recipes have that nutty flavor, yet remain low in fat content.
Choose darker chocolates for low fat dessert recipes rather than the normal ones. Normal milk chocolate actually tastes too sweet whereas darker chocolates contain anti-oxidants which are good for health.
Essences like vanilla, almond, orange or lemon extracts and spices like nutmeg or cinnamon can easily add that extra punch to your desserts without compromising on taste, just because they are low fat dessert recipes.

As is evident from the above, a bit of creativity in your cooking can result in the low fat dessert recipes turning out delicious and tasty – so much so that no body would ever imagine that the desserts were low on fat content!
