Eleven dissimilar Ways To Serve dessert Mixes - Made With Cream Cheese And Cool Whip
Dessert Mix method Suggestions
Many chip dip mix fellowships also sell sweetmeat mixes. These extraordinary sweetmeat mixes are normally made with cream cheese and a whipped topping similar to Cool Whip. Here are 11 dissimilar ways you can serve these delicious sweetmeat mixes. Make sure you read the Toppings sections. You can use these toppings to create your own signature desserts that will be the envy of all who taste them.
Fruit Dip Or Cracker / Cookie Dip If you are making a dip, serve with animal crackers, ginger snaps, chocolate covered graham crackers, graham cracker dipping sticks or mini Vanilla Wafers. For a fruit dip, serve with apple slices, orange slices, pears, peaches, cantaloupe, strawberries or grapes. Try two or three dissimilar flavors with a range of foods to dip into the dips. Also, try a range of dissimilar toppings. Yummy!
Tarts
Fill tart shells with sweetmeat dips and then add some of the toppings listed below. The dips also act as a great filling for cannoli or cream puffs.
Bite Sized Mini Cheesecakes
Another great idea for parties is Mini Cheesecakes. Buy some mini cupcake baking cups (liners) and put a full sized Vanilla Wafer in the lowest to act as a crust. Then fill the baking cups with the dip mixes topped off with one or more of the toppings listed below. Try two or more dissimilar flavors or toppings.
Full Sized Cheesecakes One of the prepared packages of sweetmeat mix will fill a 9" graham cracker pie shell. It will be level at the top of the crust, but not mounded high. The toppings you use may add height and charm to the cheesecake. Frost and partially thaw before serving for best results. (See list of toppings below.)
Thicker Cheesecake
For a thicker consistency cheesecake, use 16 oz. Of cream cheese and no Cool Whip. You may want to add some sugar or synthetic sweetener to the mix to compensate for the sugar usually provided by the Cool Whip (actually any whipped topping may be used instead of Cool Whip).
Spreads Spreads are made the same as cheesecakes, above - with or without Cool Whip, depending on how thick you want the spread to be. I suggest using the Cool Whip version. If you use all cream cheese, you may want to add some sugar or synthetic sweetener to the stock for added sweetness.
These spreads are extraordinary on bagels, waffles, nut breads, toast, muffins, cookies, graham crackers, and pancakes. Use them in the middle of cake layers and as icing for an expected Boston Cream Pie!
Cheese Balls For a cheese ball, you will want to use all cream cheese (16 oz) - no Cool Whip. You may wish to add some sugar or synthetic sweetener, if you feel you need it. Keep it in the refrigerator for four hours. Roll in a Topping listed below, or sprinkle a topping on top of the cheese ball. Great with fruit slices, butter cookies, chocolate covered graham cracker cookies or regular graham crackers.
Cream Pies Use both cream cheese and whipped topping for this recipe. You may also Frost the pie and serve it semi-thawed if you like it that way. I like my cream pies mounded high. One prepared holder of mix will bring a 9" graham cracker (or chocolate cookie) pie shell to the top of the crust. If you wish to have a higher mounded pie, as I do, use another half batch of mix. (You can Frost the other half.) another option for a higher mounded pie with our Banana Cream Pie sweetmeat mix, is to add one to one and a half bananas - sliced, and put into you closed pie filling. Fold it in gradually and it adds adequate extra volume to fill the pie shell with a nice high mound. With our other sweetmeat mix flavors, you can add many of the Toppings listed below to create a higher pie or just because it adds another delicious flavor to your extraordinary pie.
Parfaits - What a dazzling display of color and flavor you can make with parfaits using the sweetmeat mixes. Add two or more flavors of sweetmeat dip, alternating in the middle of layers of whipped topping, fresh berries, chunks of pound cake, and whatever else your imagination dictates. Use some of the Toppings listed below and you can't go wrong.
Mousse - The easiest way of all to serve our delicious sweetmeat dips. Just mix them up with cream cheese and whipped topping and put them in serving dishes with a Topping listed below. Grab a spoon and get ready for the compliments.
Cake Frosting - I met a lady at a craft show that told me she uses the sweetmeat mixes as a cake frosting. Use a puny less cream cheese and a puny more whipped topping to make it thinner to just the right consistency for frosting and literally spreadable. It adds a whole new size to your cakes. It's kind of like a Boston Cream Pie, but it's a cake. And remember, you can Frost them. What a great idea.
Toppings - Shredded coconut, heath bar pieces, reese's pieces, m&m's, crushed graham crackers, cool whip or similar topping, fresh fruit, candy sprinkles, crushed nuts, mini chocloate chips, crushed candy bars and more!
Serving Suggestions
If you are making a dip, use animal crackers, graham crackers, chocolate covered graham cracker cookies or fresh fruit. There are also two other relatively new products on the shop that are extraordinary too. One of the most popular ways of serving your dip is with these bite sized, graham cracker "dipping sticks". They are made just for this purpose. Your dip will taste like a cheesecake with a graham cracker crust.
Another stock available are mini, bite sized Vanilla Wafers. They are about the size of a dime and are wonderful. If you are having a party, I suggest at least two batches of dip. You can try two dissimilar flavors with two dissimilar serving ideas, such as one dip with dipping sticks and one with mini Vanilla Wafers.
Light Or Fat Free Whipped Toppings If you are using one of the recipes that call for whipped topping (Cool Whip, etc.), be aware that "light" or fat free whipped toppings produce a much thinner stock than regular toppings. It tastes fine, it just isn't as thick or stiff, and won't stand up well on your plate when it's sliced. It will be more like pudding.
If Fat article Is A Factor, there is a way nearby this problem. Make it with light or fat free topping and then Frost it. (Again, this stock freezes beautifully.) Let it thaw about 15 - 20 minutes or until it is easy to slice, but still partially frozen. Serve Immediately. This semi-frozen state allows the slices to stand up on your plate. However, don't let it thaw thoroughly or you've defeated the whole purpose of icy it. regular whipped topping always works best if fat article is not a factor, but either way is delicious.
Fat Free Or Light Cream Cheese Works Fine For These Recipes.
