I'm considering these:

Trouble with the first one is that it says it serves 8 -- I need at
least twice that many servings. I'm thinking about the third one.
I was asked to bring "a fluffy dessert" as opposed to a pie or something.

The last one is looking most promising -- Cool Whip's bound to be on
sale. . . . and it requires advance prep -- a day or so so those mints
dissolve. AND I've got those in house! Hoo-yah! Oreos on the shopping
list, I see.

Lemonade Angel Fluff

Recipe By: posted to rec.food.cooking by Barb Schaller 4-4-2006
Serving Size: 8
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Desserts

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
1 cup evaporated milk
2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
1 cup cold water
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup pink lemonade concentrate
red food coloring optional
4 cups angel food cake cubes

Chill milk (I used lowfat evaporated) and mixer beaters in metal mixing
bowl (I used 2-quart glass Pyrex measure). Cover and chill for at least
2 hours (I put in freezer for an hour or so then moved to fridge when it
started to freeze around the edges). In a small saucepan, sprinkle
gelatin over cold water, let stand for 2 minutes to soften. Stir in
sugar; heat until sugar and gelatin are dissolved. Remove from heat,
stir in lemonade concentrate and food color, if using. Cover and chill
until slightly thickened (like egg whites). Gradually add to chilled
milk; beat until light and fluffy. Fold in cake cubes. Pour into an
8x4x2" loaf pan coated with nonstick cooking spray. Cover and chill for
at least 2 hours. Remove from pan and cut into 8 slices. (No advice
given about how to remove from pan -- loosen with hot water?)

Angel Food Dessert

Recipe By: posted to rec.food.cooking by Barb Schaller 4-4-2006
Serving Size: 1
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Desserts

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
2 eggs separated
2 cups milk
1 cup sugar
1 pkg. lemon-flavored gelatin (3 oz.)
1 pint heavy cream whipped
1 small can crushed pineapple drained
1 small bottle maraschino cherries drained and cut up
1 angel food cake
Whipped cream

Separate eggs. Beat egg yolks; set whites aside.

Mix beaten yolks, milk and sugar in 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium
heat, stirring constantly, just to boiling. Remove from heat. Sprinkle
in the lemon gelatin and stir until dissolved; cool. If custard curdles
when lemon gelatin is added, beat with mixer until smooth.

When custard begins to congeal, beat egg whites and fold them in. Fold
together whipped cream, pineapple and cherries. Fold cream mixture into
custard mixture.

Break cake into small pieces. Put half of cake in bottom of 9x13² pan.
Top with half the custard, then remainder of cake and custard. If
necessary, push cake pieces into custard. Cover and refrigerate a few
hours or overnight.

Serve topped with whipped cream. Makes 15 servings.

Raspberry Angel Ring

Recipe By: posted to rec.food.cooking by Barb Schaller 4-4-2006
Serving Size: 15
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Desserts

Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
1 package raspberry gelatin powder (Jell-O, 3 oz pkg)
1 1/4 cups boiling water
dash salt
10 ounces frozen raspberries
1 cup heavy cream whipped
1 loaf angel food cake (10x4x2")

Rub brown crumbs off cake and tear or cut cake into 1-1/2 - 2" pieces.
Dissolve gelatin and salt in the boiling water. Add berries and stir
until thawed. Chill until partially set, then whip until fluffy. Fold
in the whipped cream. Loosely arrange half of cake pieces in bottom of
pan. Pour half of the gelatin-cream mixture over. Repeat with
remaining cake and gelatin. Chill until firm -- 2-4 hours?
‹‹‹‹‹
Notes: Rather like Anne's chocolate angel dessert -- only with Jell-o.
Light and refreshing. Though the recipe says "ring," Marge did it in a
9x13" pan. It wasn't very deep.... I'd consider a smaller pan for a
deeper end result.

What about a trifle?

Pretty, can be "fluffy", & can use some of your own preserves in it.

That's a thought - thanks.
I'm leaning towards the Oreo cookie thing, though, especially since I
just picked up a package of Oreos at Cub. . . .

Hi Barb,
Have you ever made a yogurt pie? Cool whip, yogurt of choice and
graham cracker crust. If you use banana split flavored yogurt you can
add bananas to bottom and drizzle chocolate sauce on it. Mine hoard
likes it because after a large Polish dinner that consists of two types
of kielbasa and ham they need something light and cool on their
tummies......

Sounds interesting. I'm thinking raspberry in there would be good. How
much yogurt? I won't make it for Easter because there'll be 23 people
-- and I was told to not bring pie. Far be it from me to cross my
hostess!

Where are you going for Easter and what are you bringing? Whatever it
will be, knowing you there will be plenty and it will be delicious.

Angel Food Dessert


This one looks like it would do it for me , Barb. Thanks. I have been
looking for an Easter dessert, and this one will fill the bill.


You may come for dessert and the whole meal if you like, Roast Leg of
Lamb, Scalloped potatoes , more things not yet decided --and your
dessert..

You're welcome.
Won't the lamb stink up the place? That's my enduring memory of what
Mom prepared once a year for Easter - part of the traditional Easter
basket of foods for the Vigil Service.

Anything special about the scalloped spuds? When I do them, I just use
onions, sliced spuds, and white sauce. I could bring some Bread &
Butter Pickles for the relish plate, Rosie.

FYI Lamb does not "stink up the place". It leaves a wonderful aroma.

Ok , I assume they are your famous pickles... you are most welcome. No
, the lamb does not stink up the place, and I do not serve mint
sauce.... I like it studded with Garlic and a bit of Rosemary , roasted
til pinky rare , basted with red wine.... yummmmm


Spuds are the same, pretty standred, I just think they go well with
the lamb.

That's for sure. I love the smell of roasting lamb.
