By on August 15, 2011 in Blog, Dessert, Uncategorized

Happy Monday!  We couldn’t think of a better way to start out the week other than hosting a giveaway sponsored by our pals at Chronicle Books.  You can enter all week to win this fun book,  Perfect Pops, The 50 Best Classic and Cool Treats By, Charity Ferreira.  This book is loaded with endless delicious and fun treats.

Book Description: Pops are summer’s freshest frozen treats, and they’re showing up in all the best places, from farmers markets to fine dining restaurants. The perfect way to make the most of ripe fruit is by suspending it in sweet ice, but Perfect Pops takes popsicles beyond fruit and juice. With 50 recipes for Popsicle in creative, of-the-moment flavors, this book includes creamy pops, fancy pops reminiscent of nostalgic, luscious desserts such as chocolate pudding, and alcohol-spiked pops for adults. Techniques for making striped, swirled, layered and creamy-centered pops dipped in chocolate make this book a charming resource for mothers and crafters looking for easy kitchen projects with delicious results!

    I love fruit bars. I eat them like they’re going out of style. Strawberry, lime, peach…I eat them all and probably have one daily. I recently bought the mold to make my own at home because I would feel better knowing real fruit went into them. Needless to say the freezer pop mold still has its packaging on it. This book would give me ideas and recipes to definitely try!

    Ok, so my second favorite cold dessert is called “Three Fruit Ice”. It’s a wonderful homemade recipe made from lemon juice, orange juice, and bananas! I remember my grandmother making it and it’s been passed down through the generations as a favorite!

    My third favorite dessert would be cookies. I’m not too picky on cookies as much as I am the texture. Soft is definitely the way to go. A soft and chewy oatmeal cookie is like heaven on earth. Yum!

    I guess I missed a day so my last, but certainly not least, favorite cold dessert is frozen fruit pops! We used to make them years ago when our kids were little! I’d love to have the new cookbook for some new recipes! :)

    I love Ice cream sandwiches. Especially when they are partially melted and slightly soft. Yummm I could eat a pile of them. I also love BFFF! Thanks for all the delicious recipes Missy and Nancy. When are you coming to Montana?? My husband and I are going to try to come your direction for a visit next summer. It all depends on finances and the price of gas. Of course we will bring Buddy, but the cats and the horse have to stay home. Take care and keep up the good work. Love Deb
