Introduction
This book is designed for people
who want delicious desserts but do not want to bake. There are desserts of all
types. There are quick desserts, healthy desserts, elegant desserts, diet
desserts, plain desserts, fancy desserts, quick desserts and inexpensive
desserts. In short, whatever sort of dessert you want, you should be able to
find it here.
Some of these desserts take only
minutes to make. Others, while requiring little active preparation time,
require hours of sitting in a refrigerator or freezer. You will often see the
phrase, “Refrigerate overnight”. In most cases, this is just a suggestion.
Common sense will tell you when you may serve a dessert without waiting quite
so long.
There are two schools of thought
when it comes to cooking. There are those who believe that recipes must be
followed exactly. These people measure ingredients as if they were involved in
an intricate and dangerous chemistry experiment in which the slightest
variation may end in an explosion. Others view recipes as mere suggestions.
There is something to be said for
each school of thought. If you are baking, you can cause real problems by using
too much baking soda or baking powders. Your food may not explode, but it may
certainly be ruined.
These recipes are, however, what I
call “ish” recipes. You may see recipes that call for a 15-ounce can of some
ingredient. Suppose you have a can that has 16 ounces. Well, 16 is 15-ish. An
extra ounce is not going to hurt anything. Go ahead and use it.
Nor will it hurt anything to use a
little less of an ingredient. Or refrigerate most recipes a little longer or
shorter than the recipes call for. That is what I mean when I say these are
“ish” recipes.
These recipes are tolerably
complete, but I have not always includes common sense steps. For instance, I
have not always reminded you to cover the dessert before placing it in a
refrigerator or freezer. It did not seem like a necessity to do so since
everyone knows that unwrapped items in a refrigerator can take on odd flavors.
Nor have I told you to pasteurize
your eggs before using them. I highly recommend that you do so and have
included instructions in the Appendix.
I thoroughly
believe you will enjoy this cookbook. I hope you use it for many years to come
and that it provides a great deal of happiness for you and your family.
Refrigerator Cakes
Everybody likes cake. But not
everybody has the time or the inclination to bake one. These cakes are easy to
make, don’t require baking, and are absolutely delicious. Next time you want a
dessert, make one of these cakes. You are sure to be satisfied with the
results.
