Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. This delicious dessert is often assembled with a soupy fruit bottom and baked with a pastry top. The pastry top can be piecrust-like, or, as I prefer, biscuit-like. Hot out of the oven, with a big scoop of ice cream, it's fantastic. What do you call this type of dessert?
2. Growing up, my mom called these "Sprinkle and Drizzle Bars". My husband's mother called them "Hello Dollys". These days I've heard them called "Magic Cookie Bars". Either way, they have a graham cracker crust topped with chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk and baked. One other key ingredient completes this decadent dessert. Can you name it?
3. One of my favorite birthday cakes is red velvet cake. My recipe calls for a buttery white frosting thickened with a cooked milk and flour mixture. This is unlike many restaurant and store-made red velvet cakes, which often have a cream cheese frosting. In my opinion, cream cheese frosting should only top pumpkin cake, or another well-known cake, often made with raisins, pecans, and a certain vegetable. Can you name this cake?
4. Hey, it's summertime, and I've assembled all the ingredients for another delicious dessert. The things I will need include sugar, cream, and rock salt. There may be some elbow grease involved as well! What am I going to make?
5. Next I'm going to layer pudding (or custard), brownie or cake chunks, whipped cream, and maybe raspberries or strawberries. I may also add some sherry or rum if it's for adults. I'll need a special glass bowl to really show off those layers, too. What am I making now?
6. This one is hands-down my all time favorite cookie. Ingredients include butter, sugar, flour, and of course, "morsels". Name it!
7. This cake is very light and spongy, and is baked in a special cake pan. The interesting thing about this cake is that there are no egg yolks in the recipe. What cake am I talking about?
8. This old-fashioned cookie is a favorite of mine at Christmas time. It only has a few ingredients, the main ones being egg whites and coconut. What do you call this cookie?
9. Guess what I'm making next. I have flour, salt, shortening and ice water for part of it, and I'm going to stew a squash with some spices and bake the whole thing. What in the world am I making?
10. This final question is about one of my favorite dessert ingredients. Using this ingredient, you can make a fantastic creamy pie, crispy cookies (with those great fork tine marks), and a decadent cake. We have George Washington Carver to thank for the popularization of this fabulous wonder food. Do you know it?
