Top 5 Labor Day dessert ideas:

1. Fruit pizza:

This is a real surprise for many of us – a pizza but with a variation. A marvelous sugar cookie with a yummy cheese topping is all it needs to make this dessert a complete treat. Fruit toppings of blueberries, strawberries, peaches, pineapple chunks, apricots, apples, mangoes…and every fruit you can imagine makes this dessert nutritious as well as sumptuous. The evenly spread fruits across the pizza is completely lip smacking – don’t miss this on Labor Day!

2. Chocolate and  Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie:

This is an excellent combination of crushed chocolate wafers in peanut butterand ice cream. A complete treat for peanut butter lovers, this pie is a great for serving a big crowd or even a small family who will simply love this frozen treat. You just need to serve a scoop of ice-cream in a bowl and then beat it at low speed before serving (to ensure that the ice cream is smooth) and can be perfectly spread on the pie.

3. Banana Pudding With Vanilla Wafers

This is banana pudding with slices of fresh bananas and vanilla wafers. To enjoy it the most, you can set this vanilla pudding over small banana slices. Your guests can help themselves any way they like - they will love to take spoonfuls themselves. In case you choose to serve it yourself you need to serve pudding in a small container with banana slices and vanilla wafers as toppings.

4. Chocolate Ricotta Icebox cake:

This can be a great option for those who cannot think about desserts without cakes and cheese. A unique combination of ricotta cheese, chocolate, cream and chocolate wafers – this can be your royal Labor Day treat. Each slice of the cake will remind you of its extraordinary taste and lovely flavor – do not miss this on this Labor Day.

5. Sliced Sugar Cookie Rolls:

If you don’t want to impress anyone with your culinary skills, but just desire to eat something really delicious this Labor Day, then sliced sugar cookie rolls have no comparison. Just get a sugary cookie dough from your nearest store and bake it in a few minutes and you are done!! You will find them extremely delicious and are easy to carry too – so drop in at your friend’s place with a box of these cookies and have some sweet goodies together.
