Faith Middleton Food Schmooze

What does The Food Schmooze® team do during a snowstorm? Brainstorm, of course! This week: tons of ideas for instant desserts. . .delicious little numbers you can whip up in no time at all, often with the stuff you’ve already got in your pantry or fridge. Ease is the name of the game. Think: Slow cooker chocolate fondue, Puff Pastry Napoleons, Klondike Sundaes with Dulce de leche, chocolate-covered Cheerios, and a chocolate cake you can bake in a mug in about two minutes. Fun stuff you can do in a flash—you don’t even need a recipe.  Plus, our go-tos for rush-hour meals.
