Lovers of strawberry flavor and frozen desserts, rejoice! This frozen strawberry cheesecake is a beautiful, classy, and delicious mix of both. This is sure to be a big hit at your next party, and it doesn’t even require much baking! The freezer does most of the work for you. The best part about frozen cakes is that you can make them ahead and spend more time with your guests!

I love strawberries and love cheesecake, so a recipe like this is a great dessert for me. I love that crust and everything in it, and it didn’t require much time or effort on my part to put together. Most of the time involved is just in waiting for the freezer to work its wonderful magic. That leaves you free to do plenty of other things in the meantime.

These bite-sized treats are sure to be loved at any celebration!  If you have been a bit overloaded with preparing food for festive occasions and need a fresh idea for a good dessert item, these Champagne Cupcakes with Meringue Buttercream Frosting are a good option.  The guests will love the presentation and the little surprise in the middle!

Believe me, I know how it is when you’re going through the last of a few big events in a row and just need that ONE MORE THING that will complete the spread and keep all of the guests happy without being too boring or too out of place.  These cupcakes really are great for any special event, big or small, and they’re just out of the ordinary enough to feel and taste special while still giving you some classically delicious dessert flavors.

Oh, Strawberry Heaven! Yummy!

These Strawberry Brownies are ultra-delicious, and you won’t believe how quick and easy these are to put together! These treats really come into their own in events like children’s birthday parties, but they are sure to be enjoyed by sweet-lovers of all ages. They look simply beautiful – everyone always falls in love with the color first, and after their first bite they are completely sold. I do enjoy a good brownie, even the more traditional ones.

A friend of mine regularly makes a batch of fudge brownies for the tailgate that I go to, and the adults love them even more than her grandkids do!

But, hey, variety is the spice of life.  I tried these, and boy, was I glad that I did. A bit of a warning for you, though – you’d better make a double batch if you want to save a bite for yourself, too! These will be gone in a heartbeat.

Now THAT’S a Nice Secret Ingredient!

Sometimes your dinner party just calls for a nice, citrus-flavored dessert, and you won’t find one tastier or more creative than this.  I present to you the Citrus Cake With Tequila Lime Frosting. Mmm-mmm-delicious, and it takes just 40 minutes of prep and 35 minutes of baking time. Surprise your guests with a slice of this cake and you will definitely be voted The Hostess Of The Year! Maybe even the whole decade! I do love a nice, cold margarita, once or twice a year, and I do enjoy a nice citrus-flavored dessert, too.

It had not occurred to me to combine the two in cake form.  What a lovely, creative idea!  I tried it and loved it – my husband made me promise I would make it again soon, and I can’t let him down, can I? I think this is going to be on our dessert menu again next week…

If you decide to make this dessert more than once a week don’t feel guilty…just get yourself to the gym! LOL Seriously, though, this dessert is really good and it’s very hard to shy away from!

These Peanut Butter Cookie-Cupcakes bring all of those beloved childhood treats together in one delicious dessert. They’re really quick and easy to make.  Your children will love them, and so will you!  I need to warn you, though – they will be gone in a heartbeat, so make sure you’ll grab some for yourself first!

I loved Reese’s peanut butter cups when I was growing up (still do, actually – and who wouldn’t).  I think that I was most excited when I saw them as part of my trick-or-treating haul at Halloween, but they were great any time of year.  How can you go wrong with that peanut butter and chocolate combination, and how can you make it even better?  Put it in this recipe.  It’s seriously yummy!

This Slow-Cooker Blackberry Cobbler makes for a lovely summer dessert.  It may not be the way that your grandmother made it, but adapting it to the slow-cooker makes it very low-hassle and accessible to the person on the go.  Enjoy this fruity and delicious helping of Southern comfort the easy way.

I have fond memories of eating this tasty dessert during those famously hot and humid summers on the Gulf Coast.  There were some really good-sized blackberry bushes behind where I lived as a teen, and if the neighbor kids and I were willing to take the time to pick them (you had to be careful to check for snakes and not scratch yourself on the brambles), we were rewarded for our efforts with a nice helping of blackberry cobbler that my next-door neighbor would make for all of us.

Of course, she made it the old-fashioned way, but I was eager to break out the Crock-Pot and give this recipe a go.  I was very pleased with the results.
