Giant King Cake Pop-Tart
This festive Mardi Gras mashup is perfect for anyone seeking a lower-effort alternative to homemade king cake. The key to keeping this recipe big and easy is store-bought puff pastry--which encases a gooey cinnamon-sugar filling and is frosted with a decadent cream cheese glaze. So while it's certainly not a traditional king cake, this giant brown sugar-cinnamon tart does offer a similarly flaky, buttery, and sweetly delicious pastry experience. In place of the plastic baby typically that's hidden in a king cake after it's finished baking, you can always tuck an almond or other nut.
Pecan Cajun Cake
Great for a Mardi Gras-themed dinner party! I was a member of the Barksdale AFB Officers' Wive's gourmet club. This cake was made for one of our luncheons. Guaranteed Cajun!
Skinny Foster
A lighter version of the traditional dessert. Also yummy served over pancakes instead of syrup.
Pralines II
Delicious candy and pretty easy to make.
Chiacchiere with Sanguinaccio
'Chiacchiere' is a dessert that is fried and sprinkled with confectioners' sugar and served with sanguinaccio. It is a traditional Italian dessert in the region of Campagnia, served during 'carnevale' or as we say Mardi Gras. It is served with 'sanguinaccio' a chocolate sauce used for dipping the 'chiacchiere'. Years ago the sanguinaccio was made with chocolate and pig's blood, but now the use of the blood has been banned due to health concerns, but in small villages across Italy it is still used.
Bananas Foster Pudding
Bread, bananas, banana liqueur, cream and pecans are the featured ingredients in this slowly baked bread pudding spiced with cinnamon.
Crostoli Pastries
Crostoli, light and airy fried pastries, are a beloved part of Italy's Carnevale and a cherished holiday treat for Italian-Americans. This family recipe, passed down from my great-grandmother, originated in Italy's Veneto region and traveled with her to the U.S.
Fastelavnsboller (Fastelavn Buns)
Traditional Danish buns with a custard-type cream and chocolate icing are always eaten by children on Fastelavn, which falls around Shrove Tuesday.
Bourbon Bread Pudding
A sweet bourbon bread pudding for large get-togethers. My family requests that I bring this every holiday!
Semla
A semla (semlor is the plural form) is a Swedish cardamom bun filled with marzipan and sweetened cream. These are traditionally served on Fat Tuesday, but nowadays these delicious pastries are happily eaten as often as they can be found. We love that these are not too sweet and are just big enough.
King Cake Cupcakes
These king cake cupcakes are less yeasty and more cake-like than the cake. They get you the vanilla-nutmeg-lemon-buttermilk flavor and fun colors of a traditional king cake — without waiting around for a yeasted dough to rise.
New Orleans Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie
My family loves this pecan pie at Thanksgiving, Christmas, or really any holiday of the year. So put on some jazz, pour yourself some java, and have a piece of this delicious dessert. The chocolate chips and bourbon add a delicious change to the normal pecan pie. Top with whipped cream, and enjoy.
