You could spend an hour making classic American strawberry shortcake, but John Keller, chef at Co-Op Food & Drink in New York, has figured out a way to cut the process down to 10 minutes. His secret ingredient: store-bought biscuit dough that comes in a tube. Strawberries, sugar, heavy cream and vanilla help transform any brand of the humble supermarket product into a guest-worthy treat.

At La Silhouette restaurant in New York, pastry chef Jeff Sytsma serves a peanut butter sabayon (a light, foamy Italian mousse) with warm chocolate cake. This more traditional version -- made with just brandy, water, egg yolks and sugar -- is a lovely complement to bright pink and orange winter fruits such as blood oranges, Cara Cara navels and grapefruit.

Chef Anthony Stewart of the Pritikin Longevity Center & Spa in Miami transforms one of our go-to quick desserts -- a parfait -- by using unconventional ingredients, like apple juice concentrate and ginger root.

Sabina Belkin
This dish may sound complicated, but Sabina and Lorraine Belkin, sisters and chefs/owners of Duo Restaurant & Lounge in New York, promise it comes together quickly: You can brown the bananas in just two minutes and cook the crepes in two more. In less than 10 minutes, you'll have the classic late-night Parisian street food right in your own kitchen.

Puckery lemon sherbet, crushed frozen strawberries and sparkling wine all poured into a single glass make for a gorgeous palate cleanser that falls somewhere between a slushy and a smoothie. A champagne flute or coupe is perfect for this dessert; top it with a sprig of mint.

Follow a rich meal with this unexpected choice, where ricotta -- which usually only shows up on the dessert menu in cheesecake -- gets the spotlight. Though it only takes a minute to stir two cups of cheese with a teaspoon each of lemon zest and juice, a half teaspoon of vanilla and sugar to taste, it's best if you make it before dinner so the cheese can absorb the bright flavors.

The trick to making these standbys perfect is to use soft cookies. Country Choice Organic cookies are ideal and come in oatmeal raisin, oatmeal chocolate chip and double fudge brownie flavors. The fun is in dreaming up the perfect sandwich combination: Try chocolate chip with limited edition amaretto almond crunch, snickerdoodles with Ben & Jerry's cinnamon ice cream or chocolate cookies with any peanut butter ice cream.
Author and Food Network chef Kathleen Daelemans says this pudding -- which you can whip up with pantry ingredients including sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, bittersweet chocolate and vanilla extract -- is best eaten just five minutes after it comes off the stove, when it's barely set.
I recently ran into a friend of mine that said she loved my blog but that she could never make any of the desserts I put together because 1) they are hard/time consuming and 2) she doesn’t have any of the “random” ingredients on hand. As someone who works full time and bakes and blogs any chance I get, I know how valuable quick and easy dessert recipes can be. I also know that living in a small apartment with a tiny kitchen makes it hard to keep things as simple as brown sugar on hand. As a result, I’ve compiled a couple lists of recipes that would be helpful for those of you who don’t have all of the basics or even a lot of time to bake.

After a day of hanging out by the pool and grilling up some hamburgers and hot dogs, it's certainly time to indulge in a few easy summer desserts. Your best bet is to keep it simple and refreshing. You won't have to turn on the oven for these delectable summer desserts recipes.
Fresh Fruit Dessert
How about a cool fresh fruit salad to make for your guests? It takes no time at all, and you can tailor it to your own fruit preferences. First you're going to have to cut up several of your fresh fruits into small, bite-sized pieces. Or you can use a melon scooper if you have one on hand. For some fruit suggestions try watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew melon, strawberries, blueberries, mango, papaya and kiwi.
After all the fruit is chopped up, put it into a large serving bowl. Toss the fruit mixture with 2 tablespoons of sugar. When you're about to serve this dessert recipe, top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, Cool Whip or non-fat vanilla yogurt.
This recipe is perfect to take to a barbeque or a picnic. You can put the prepared fruit salad right into a plastic bag and carry the Cool Whip or ice cream in a cooler. With a few plastic bowls and spoons, it's ready to go in seconds.
Ladyfinger Strawberry Shortcake
We all love the classic strawberry shortcake, but who wants to turn on the oven when it's 80 degrees outside? This is a quick twist on the shortcake that will only take about 10 minutes to prepare.
In a large bowl combine sliced strawberries, 2 teaspoons sugar, a splash of orange juice and a drop of vanilla extract, and mix well. Then take your individual serving bowls and line the bottom of each bowl with 3 ladyfingers. Scoop out the strawberry mixture, and put it on top. Then take either whipped cream or Cool Whip, and cover the strawberry mixture. Top each bowl with one whole strawberry. Repeat for the other serving bowls..
