Quick and Easy Dessert

Pin It Now!

Here is a very quick & easy dessert. The hardest part of this is finding the Stella D'oro Anginetti cookies. I went to four different stores looking for them. I finally found them but they were on sale and they only had 1 bag left. These are always a hit every time I make them so I usually double the recipe. Everyone is always impressed that I made them...they don't have any clue that they are just filled store bought cookies! This recipe can easily be doubled 1 pkg. (5 oz.) STELLA D'ORO ANGINETTI Cookies

4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened

1-1/2 cups thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping

1 can (8 oz.) crushed pineapple, well drained

CUT cookies in half horizontally; set aside.

BEAT cream cheese in small bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Add whipped topping; beat 1 minute or just until blended. Gently stir in pineapple.

SPOON 1 Tbsp. of the pineapple mixture onto bottom half of each cookie; cover with top half of cookie. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Store leftover cream puffs in refrigerator.

I still haven't received my Victoria Magazine!

Cindy, that recipe's a keeper. Looks delish and it's easy too. Thanks! A couple of people have mentioned that they haven't gotten their Victoria Mag yet. I haven't seen it in any bookstore either.

P.S. Yes, it was a bunch of men that said that! So you think I should use a paste wax instead of a few coats of poly?

Wish I liked to cook - these look delicious.

I have two cherub wall planters very similar to your cherub in the previous post. Mine are a mottled green, and I love them. Got them for $6 each, but spent a fortune on the floral arrangements!

That looks so yummy. I got my Victoria Magazine today. I was so surprised since they emailed me and said about 4 to 5 weeks. I am sure that is just something standard. I do need to make a phone call because I have not been getting my Cottage Living.
Have a blessed day

This recipe is so good and it has been my secret weapon. I arrange them on a silver tray for added effect. My friend asked me to make them for a party which was also being catered. The caterer provided cream puffs. Need I say more, at the end of the party, cream puffs remained - but this amazing simple dessert was gone, gone, gone! Everyone commented upon how good they were.

Julie said...
