The other day at work while I was on my lunch break, I watched a Youtube video on vintage desserts that you rarely see anymore. Several of them really caught my interest and I started a list. Go figure, another list LOL But that got me to thinking about desserts that are on my cooking bucket list. Some of these are very basic desserts that are still popular today, I just have never made them. Some are inspired by recipes in cookbooks I have. Of course, there are many more out there but here are 10 of them:
1. Chiffon Cake
Chiffon cake is a light cake that is made with vegetable oil instead of traditional butter or other heavy fats
2. Harvey Wallbanger Cake
3. Grasshopper Pie
A creamy no-bake pie mixing chocolate, mint and whipping cream
4. German Chocolate Cake
A layered chocolate cake filled and topped with coconut-pecan frosting
5. Lady Baltimore Cake
A white layer cake with fluffy frosting and fruit and nut filling
6. Apple Pie
A double crusted pie filled with apples, often served with whipped cream or ice cream
7. Pecan Pie
A pie filled with pecans, eggs, sugar and butter. What could be better?
8. Tiramisu
A layered Italian dessert of lady fingers dipped in coffee and a whipped mixture of eggs, sugar and mascarpone and dusted with cocoa
9. Lemon Meringue Pie
A pie filled with lemon curd filling and topped with meringue
10. Black Forest Cake
A chocolate and cream cake with a rich cherry filling
We shall see how many of these I can check off of my bucket list this year. Of course, I can only make them when I have people to share them with! Any takers?
