My sons has to learn how to do something and show what he has learned in class. Of course, he choose to cook something. Any ideas on a Pampered Chef recipe that he can prepare in front of class, that is easy? I was thinking of maybe a skillet cake baked ahead of time and then bringing in the ingredients that he could just mix together in the batter bowl.

Any ideas out there?
 
Glazed Peppered Pecans, made ahead. Then, he could take them off the S.A. Tiles Platter and put in "sample" bags with the Bamboo Tongs to hand out to the kids.

How about the peanutty brownie pizza or something on that idea where you can bake the crust and then he can just "put it together at school."
 
OOOh yeah, Taffy Apple Pizza is ALWAYS a hit! ...of course there's the peanut allergy thing... I dig the profiteroles, you can bake them ahead, then mix the filling and fill them with the EAD then use the Decorator Bottles to drizzle the chocolate frosting. Maybe some sandwich wraps? You could cut them into pinwheels for smaller serving sizes!
