Time Tested Dessert Tips That Work

By: Aazdak Alisimo

There are so many different parts of a meal that are a joy to cook and consume, but the dessert really has to be at the top of the list without a doubt. A good dessert just can't be beat. Here are some time tested tips that will help you with our tips.

When decorating a cake, should you try to keep the serving platter it is on clean? If you think so, there is a simple way to do this. Put down two sheets of wax paper before placing the cake. When done, slide them out each side.

If your chocolate chips spread out into little lakes in cookies, you have a problem. One way to make chips remain chips when cooking is to use frozen ones. Add them to the batter just before cooking and you should have better results.

We don't need no stink'n flour! When baking a cake, use granulated sugar on the baking sheet instead of flour. It will keep the cake from sticking to the pan and will taste a lot better as well when people dig into the bottom of each piece of cake.

When you have a frozen cylinder of dough, you have to be careful when handling it. Whatever you are doing to it, make sure to turn it every 30 seconds or so. This keeps one side from becoming flat like a flat tire.

You can stop dripping ice cream cones now. How? It is amazingly simple. Buy some mini marshmallows and then stuff a few in the bottom of each cone. They will form a dam that keeps the liquid from running out the bottom.

Ever flipped a gelatin mold onto a plate, but get it off center. If so, you know moving it is a nightmare that rarely ends well. To avoid this problem, sprinkle water on the target plate before you flip. It makes correcting any errors a lot easier.

Is it possible to get hard desserts soft again? Sometimes. The key thing required? A piece of bread. If you have hard cookies or marshmallows, throw them in a ziplock with one piece. The bread will magically moisturize them.

Measuring a stick liquid such as honey can be a problem since some of it seems to stay behind. One way to get around this is to use non-stick spray in the cup before measuring. The sticky liquid should all come out fairly easy and you'll have the right amount.

Given the endless number of desserts that exist, it is obviously impossible to nail down every last bit of advice to make your cooking turn out as optimal as possible. Nonetheless, I like to think this is a good place to start.
