I know deserts are usually over done at pot lucks but I love them! I also like to bake and it gives me a reason to do so. I also like to make pasta salad for summer events or twice baked mashed potatoes with roasted garlic, bacon, cheese, etc.

Valentine deserts
Hi!

I too love to cook and bake!
I know this sounds plain and simple, but with 100 people, you can save some headaches, and emphasize on decorating cupcakes. Cupcakes are so in right now. Maybe you can make some chocolate, some white, or other flavor, and decorate with a nice icing, and some decorations.

Another easy way to go for a large crowd is fill chocolate cups with a strawberry mousse and a strawberry on top, fresh blueberries, etc. You can get these things at Smart N Final. Valentine cookies are always popular too. Make sugar cookies in the shape of various size hearts, and then have some friends over to decorate them, and put each in a clear plastic bag with a pretty ribbon.

Pies and deserts

What kind of pies and deserts do you have for Turkey Day? Home made or frozen or store bought?

Me - Homemade pecan and pumpkin. Completely from scratch, even roast the pumpkin. Must have real whipped cream to go along with it too. We are going to my MIL/FIL for the holiday and they are only having apple and cherry pie. I just couldn't bear the thought of no pumpkin or pecan so I'm bring those along with me.

Couple of easy delicious deserts
Go to eaglebrand.com and put in chocolate rasberry cheescake -- easy to make and I get more compliments on this than anything I have evey brought to a party. And I make from scratch all the time but this is so easy and especially men love it. Another one is a apple/spice cake from Betty Crocker web page. Kids love this one. You basically add a can of apples -- though I substitute fresh apples, cook them like you would for a compote instead of the canned -- in the mix and it is so goooooooooooooooood. All of my nephews and nieces ask that I make it when I come to a family gathering. So there are a couple. But I do a lot of search on web pages and on the Food Network and find wonderful recipes. Good luck.
