32.0. "Desserts Anyone?" by SUMMIT::HOGLUND () Tue Sep 11 1984 12:07

I will start this note with a simple and light dessert, but definately
not for the calorie conscious. Perhaps you would like to add to it.

Ingredients:

1 pkg of fresh berries (qt basket?)
3 egg whites
1 1/2 pts heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teas vanilla extract

Puree the berries in a blender. I using Rasberries or a berry with a
seed, strain the blended berries thru a fine sieve to remove the seeds.

Beat the egg whites until they hold a soft peak. Add the sugar slowly
while continuing to beat the eggs till they hold a firm peak. 

Whip the cream until it holds a firm peak. Add the vanilla extract as
you whip the cream.

Fold the whipped cream into the egg whites. Then fold in the berries.
Serves 6-8.

For smaller or larger portions use 1 egg white for each 1/2 pt cream,
and adjust the amount of berries accordingly.

** second sentence begins with "If" not "I" **

*** when adjusting portions thats 1/4 cup sugar for each egg white. ***

    COMSTOCK fruit in a can is canned pie filling.  COMSTOCK is the
    brand; I'm sure other brands would work fine.

    1. what is "COMSTOCK" fruit in a can ?
    
    Comstock fruit is a allready seasoned fruit say you were making
    an apple pie. wou would have to cook the apples add cimminnon.
    well comstock (brand name) has already done all this. you nac hind
    it in the baking section of store.
    
    2. Just sprinkle cake mix on top ? 
    
    YES that's what's makes it so easy. the first few times I dident
    understand that either. but the butter as it melts through the cake
    mix moistens enough to actually cook the cake. you'll see. your
    going to love it.
    
    I have tried this with apple, blueberry, blackberry, cerry pie mixes
    my family loves it..
    
    Let me know how it comes out.
    
    Remenber let it cook long enough for the cake mix to complete cooking
    about 45 min give or take a few min.

    I also have this recipe and it is a great hit.  Very simple
    to make.  I use a 9 X 13" pan put crushed pineapple on the
    bottom, a layer of cherry pie filing (usually use 2 cans as
    1 can has very few cherries in it) then sprinkle on the
    cake mix.  I use the margarine that has part margarine and
    part butter to keep the cholesterol level down.

    Here is a quick,simple but very yummie dessert!
    
    2 bananas.
    half pint Greek yougurt.
    pure maple syrup. (not maple flavored syrup.)
    
    Slice the bananas and put them in the bottom of 4 dessert dishes, spoon
    the Greek yougurt generously over the bananas and carefully pour the 
    maple syrup over the yougurt to make a layered effect.
    
    Like I said really simple but delicious!!
