Deserts






Today I am going to talk about some desserts that I think that are delizioso or delicious. Such as banana pudding, and pound cake.

First I want to talk about banana pudding. To start get yellow instant banana jello pudding mix and add that to three cups of milk stir well. Find a big bowl and line it with wafers, then bananas then the cream over and over.

Once done cover with saran wrap or aluminum foil and let sit in refrigerator for thirty minutes to an hour.







Next I am going to tell you about my next favorite which is pound cake. Get out three cups of sugar, two sticks of butter, five eggs, three cups of all purpose flour, and one tsp of baking powder, vanilla flavoring, lemon flavoring and one cup of milk, and ½ a cup of crisco shortened.

Take the two sticks of butter and softened it and add it with three cups of sugar and the ½ cup of crisco shortened once add together mix until thick. Next add the eggs one at a time then add one cup of flour and then ½ cup of milk and one cup of flour and mix well.

Then add the vanilla, lemon, and baking powder once mixed well clean the beaters with a spatula and stir to pound cake mix. Finally get a pound cake pan spread crisco and flour on the pan. Once spread pour in mix and put in oven but the oven has to be cold and then turn on the oven to 325 degrees.

For one hour and thirty minutes but don’t check or even open to look until the time is up and let sit for fifteen minutes. I promise you if you don’t wait that time it will not rise right so just leave it be and it will be fine.
