I was wondering what type of dessert is good to make with the ss kit. I have been making the garden veggie pizza and eveyone loves it. But I have a show set for 10/27 and this person did not like the pizza when she had it at a show of mine last month.

She would like me to make a dessert, I did do the phyllo bundles at home but I really did not like them. The phyllo dough is to hard to work with, so if anyone had other ideas I would appreciate it.

Hey Michelle! I am assuming that you have a Season's Best cookbook and in each cookbook, the last 2 recipes in each section are for Super Starters meaning those specific recipes can be used by SS since they are on limited tools. Hope I helped! :)
 
I have done the banana toffee pizza very yummy and easy
 
The Chocolate Chip Sensation is awesome, easy and can be done with the Starter Kit. Let me know if you are interested and I will post the recipe. It is always a big hit (chocolate chip cookie, cream cheese and chocolate pudding! Yum!).

Thanks Kristi yes I do know about the seasons best recipes and I did try the chocolate banana phyllo bundles but I did not want to do them because of the phyllo dough and the other recipe in the latest and greatest seasons best also uses puff pastry sheets and I don't want to have the trouble of using them at a show.

Jennifer, I would love the chocolate chip sensation recipe. I do have some older copies of the seasons best and I will look in those for other ideas but I wanted to see what other consultants were using for recipes using the SS kit. Thanks everyone.

I think the Bananas Foster Dip is something you can do with the Super Starter Kit. I did a search of Season's Bests on CC and here it is:

The Pampered Chef ®
Bananas Foster Dip
Recipe


1/2 cup pecan halves, chopped
1 medium banana, coarsely chopped
1 lemon
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 jar (12 ounces) hot caramel ice cream topping
2 apples, cut into wedges, or butter cookies



Preheat oven to 350°F. Chop pecans and banana using Food Chopper. Zest lemon using Lemon Zester/Scorer to measure 1 teaspoon zest; chop zest using Utility Knife. Juice lemon to measure 1 tablespoon juice.


Combine banana, lemon zest, juice, cinnamon and ice cream topping in Classic Batter Bowl; mix well using Small Mix 'N Scraper®. Pour mixture into Small Oval Baker. Sprinkle pecans over caramel mixture. Bake 10-12 minutes or until bubbly and heated through. Cut apples into wedges using Crinkle Cutter. Serve dip with apples or butter cookies.



Yield: 16 servings or 24 sample servings


Nutrients per serving: (Light) (2 tablespoons dip and 2 apple slices): Calories 130, Total Fat 4.5 g, Saturated Fat .5 g, Cholesterol 0 mg, Carbohydrate 26 g, Protein 1 g, Sodium 45 mg, Fiber less than 1 g


Cook's Tip: Pantry Korintje Cinnamon can be substituted for the ground cinnamon, if desired.

Dip the apple wedges into additional lemon juice to prevent them from turning brown.

Try this dessert as a topping over scoops of ice cream or slices of pound cake.

Starter DesertsThe first SS desert I made was the Warm Apple Almond Pastry. The puff pastry is actually very EASY to work with (as long as you thaw it in the microwave on LOW, not full power like I did at my first show :eek: -luckily that was before the demo and it still turned out beautiful). Guests were impressed and it is a nice fall desert. Its in the 04 and 05 fall season's best (on the last page)

Rebecca,

Thank You for posting that for me. I haven't had the chance to get on here for a couple of days.
 
ss recipeAlso, the Strawberry Banana Sundae Pizza is great, you can do it on the Large Round or double the recipe and do it in the bar pan. It has been a big hit at my last two shows and was requested for my show tomorrow night! :)
 
Could you post the strawberry banana sundae pizza recipe? :D
