Joyfully as we move into the Fall Season our social calendars become flooded with invites. At times it is a challenge to navigate the friends and family events. Your list may include cocktail parties, formal dinner parties and casual pot luck with friends. This list of Dining With Mimi’s Favorite Desserts for Entertaining will be a good start for a dessert recipe to share.
What should I make for dessert?
What should I make for dessert? I usually have the answer after I assess the following:
How much time do I have?
What number of servings will I require?
Is this an easy recipe?
Do I have the ingredients on hand?
Is it possible to make this recipe ahead of time and set aside?
Upon review of this list, I am able to select a drool worthy dessert that will work for my schedule. Here are a few of my favorite recipes for entertaining. Please consider adding to your Fall Dessert Table. Over the years many a house guest has enjoyed one of my dessert recipes.
What if I have still have questions?
Please let me know if you have any questions about the dessert recipes. Leave a comment or question and I will respond asap. In addition, I am happy to be a entertaining resource and share what I have learned over time. It is not necessary for you to make the mistakes that I made while learning how to cook and entertain.
Cooking food for anyone is a labor of love. It allows you to create something special made by you. This one act says that you took the time necessary to wow your guests. Yet, even I purchase desserts to go from my favorite shops when I am short on time. Although my preference is to make something home made with love from my kitchen.
Here are a few of my favorite recipes. A few of these recipes reach back from the beginning of my site. While reviewing you may notice changes in my site. Over time I am working hard to improve my writing and photography skills. Like my site, I am a work in process flawed but ever changing.
On the site, please let me know if you have tried any of the recipes. What is your favorite dessert? Is there something that you didn’t like? Is there a recipe that you would like to see on my site?

It really is yummy
Awesome suggestions! Can’t wait to try them out! You’ve never failed me when it comes to needing a recipe! Granny G would be so proud of this. I can definitely see the impact she had on you with not only her love of cooking but her love of sharing her delicious creations with others. 💕
Thank you! That is about the sweetest compliment ever. I am happy to help. Just think of me as your entertaining and foodie consultant. Whether its a party planning idea or cooking question. Although the party that you planned called Painting in Tutus is about the cutest idea ever. You certainly have a creative streak of your own. Hugs from Bama.
That strawberry one looks amazing!!! Could use some right now.
Thank you. I wish I could twinkle my nose and send you a batch. Hugs to you and yours.
