Easy Desserts For a Crowd Biography

Source(google.com.pk)
This is a recipe I got years ago after eating it at a church luncheon. It is delicious, easy, and feeds a crowd. I have served it at family parties and showers. It is similar to a shortcake with a cheesecake twist. The original recipe calls for raspberries which I love but not every one in my house enjoys raspberries. So when I make it, I usually do strawberries. Most of the time I macerate the strawberries in sugar or use a package of danish dessert (following the directions for the fruit sauce) and add the strawberries to that. I made this for Easter dessert and decided to use purchased strawberry glaze. I have to say that I prefer the macerated strawberries or danish dessert version much better than the glaze.

1 white cake mix (plus ingredient to make the cake mix)
2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese, softened
4 cups powdered sugar
1 (12oz) container of cool whip
fruit topping *** see not below for options
Mix cake mix according to the package. Spray the bottom on a jelly roll pan ( 13 x 18) . Pour batter into pan and spread evenly.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Let cool completely.
With a mixer, blend cream cheese and powdered sugar together. Add cool whip and beat until smooth and creamy.
Spread mixture on top of cooled cake.
Cut into pieces and serve with fruit topping.

prepared according to fruit sauce directions with fresh fruit mix in
Macerated strawberries (see directions below)
any berry sauce recipe you like (I have a few on my site)
or raspberry (blackberries would work too) sauce (see directions below)
To macerate the strawberries, place hulled and sliced berries in a bowl and sprinkle with granulated white sugar about 2 tablespoons per pint. Let the berries and sugar macerate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
For the raspberry sauce you need 2-3 pkgs of frozen raspberries (the kind in heavy syrup is what I have used, but ). In a sauce pan, mix berries with 1/2 cup sugar and enough cornstarch (like 1 Tbp cornstarch) to thicken sauce to desired consistency. Heat until sauce is just bubbly and thickened. Let cool.

I love fresh strawberry pie. When I was in high school, Nelson's Family Restaurant in Richfield (MN) became famous for their fresh strawberry pie. It was piled high with fresh strawberries, held together with a strawberry glaze and topped with lots of whipped cream. I often think of their pies this time of the year when fresh strawberries are in season and at their best.

Since pies can be a bit intimidating to make, especially for a novice baker, I decided to make a really simple-to-make dessert based on my memory of Nelson's Fresh Strawberry Pie recipe. And I added my touch to the recipe with a sweet-buttery layer to bind the berries and crust together and to make the dessert easier to serve.
Place the dough into a 13x9-inch glass baking dish. Trim off any excess dough with a table knife. You can piece together any cracks or missing corners, by pressing dough scraps into these areas. Prick dough all over with fork to prevent puffing up.Bake the crust at 425°F. for 9 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown.

Make a filling of butter, powdered sugar, eggs and vanilla. (Note:Because this filling isn't baked, you have to use pasteurized eggs.) Spread the filling over the baked crust.
