These Easy Cake Mix Cookies really are sooo easy to make, and they’re a real hit. Everyone in my house likes soft cookies, and these are the softest.

I love the fact that you can customize these by adding different toppings and use different cake mixes.

Great recipe! My favorite flavor of cake mix to use is lemon, but chocolate is good too (they taste like brownies!)

If you’ve never made bread pudding before, give this recipe a try and I guarantee you will make it again.

This pudding is even better if you’ll sprinkle about a cup of chocolate chips over the top when it first comes out of the oven.

This Banana Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting is one of the best banana cakes I have ever tasted! So moist and yummy… a nice and dense cake.

It’s similar in texture to a carrot cake… I really liked it slightly chilled, but it’s great at room temp too!

So glad I came across this one!! Soooo good and it gets better each day it sits. It’s always best to make this cake at least the day before you need or want it.

This Old-Fashioned Banana Cream Pie is a great grand finale to a meal. Guests won’t stop raving about it. It’s deliciously creamy and easy to make.

Before Cool Whip and instant pudding, this was how a cream pie was made.

Almost as easy as pudding out of the box but sooo much tastier!

If you leave out the bananas, you have vanilla cream pie. If you add 1 cup shredded coconut to the milk as it’s being heated, you have coconut cream pie.

Out of all the apple crisp recipes I’ve tried, this is the best. It has a great fruit-to-topping ratio and the apples aren’t too mushy.

You can also use this same recipe to make peach crisp.

Crispy, crunchy topping, not too sweet, not soupy or runny. Perfect. Very easy and delightful.

At its best when served hot with whipped cream or ice cream on top.

What is not to like about this fantastic fruity dessert? I’ve actually had these Banana Split Shortcakes for breakfast!!!

You can make the strawberry sauce the day before and then just bake the shortcakes and cool, then assemble and enjoy each bite.

Another winner in my family’s eyes. Allow time before serving to assemble the dessert as these have to be put together just a few minutes before serving or the ice cream will melt.

Banana Split Shortcakes

Ingredients

• 1 quart ice cream either chocolate, strawberry or vanilla ice cream, your choice

Strawberry Sauce

• 1 pint strawberry hulled and chopped
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 3/4 teaspoon cornstarch

Shortcakes

• 2 cups flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup cold butter cut into small pieces
• 1 -1 1/4 cup low-fat buttermilk

Garnishes

• 2 cups whipped topping
• 3 bananas peeled and sliced
• 8 maraschino cherries with stems if desired
• 1 10 ounce jar hot fudge, heated as directed on jar

Instructions

1. Heat oven to 400°F Chill one cookie sheet and have ready another cookie sheet.
2. Drop 8 scoops of ice cream onto chilled cookie sheet and place in freezer.

For Strawberry sauce:

1. Put sauce ingredients into a small saucepan, stir to mix. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Reduce heat to low and simmer 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Pour into a bowl, cool, cover, and refrigerate.

For Shortcakes:

1. Mix together the flour, sugar, and the baking powder in a medium bowl. With a pastry blender, cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Pour 1 c of the lite buttermilk in with the mixture and stir with a spoon until mixture clumps together and is slightly sticky, adding more liquid, a little at a time, if necessary (up to the 1 1/4 cup in total).
3. (Note: You can mix the shortcake dough in a processor too. Process the dry ingredients briefly to mix and then scatter butter over top and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. With motor running, add buttermilk and process just until mixture leaves sides of bowl. Remove blades.).
4. Drop 8 slightly rounded 1/3 cupfuls of dough 2 inches apart on ungreased Bake 12 minutes or until slightly puffed, bottoms are brown and tops are golden. Gently slide cakes onto a wire rack and cool completely.
5. Shortly before serving:.
6. Split shortcakes in half (using a serrated knife and gentle sawing motion makes it easier and less likely to tear the shortcake).
7. Place shortcake on dessert plate and top each with a scoop of the ice cream and 2 slices of banana.
8. Drop a large dollop or pipe some whipped cream onto top of banana.
9. Garnish with cherries.
10. Either serve with little pitchers of the strawberry sauce and the hot fudge sauce (already heated) or lightly drizzle each of the Banana Split Shortcakes with both sauces.
