In my search to find delicious, easy and impressive looking desserts, aka WOW Factor Desserts I feel like I have struck gold! These little gems of goodness are rediculously simple to put together and almost guiltless because they are just a taste! To see last weeks Wow Factor Dessert click HERE.
To make these bite sized desserts you need only use your imagination. No recipe is really necessary. Just a formula.
Crust, cake or crumble + pudding, custard, or glaze + whippped cream + fruit or syrup + more whipped cream or icing.
and VOILA... a WOW of a dessert!
The best part about making this dessert is that I used all store bought items- no big preparation. The only thing I would have done differently would be to make my own whipped cream and pipe it onto the dessert. I bought canned whipped cream but it got too runny. Live and learn!
