Honestly, any dessert that Dad loves is the perfect Father's Day dessert, but I thought I'd share a few favorites of Mr. E and my Dad. These are the Bake at 350 family's Top Desserts for Father's Day!
As always, click the title to go to the recipe/cookie tutorial.
11 Desserts for Father's Day
From 2018, Brown Butter and Vanilla Oatmeal Cookies
We'll start with oatmeal cookies because they're my dad's favorite. Chocolate chip cookies are MY favorite, but these are so yummy that I make them by choice sometimes. I don't even sub chocolate chips for raisins! Really!
From 2019, Coffee Turtle Ice Cream Pie
My husband is alllllll about the ice cream pies. Well, any pie in general. And also any ice cream. What I'm saying is, this recipe is a hit! Seriously y'all, it's so, so good!
From 2019, Bourbon Pecan Puffs
You can't have Father's Day without a little bourbon. At least, that's what I'm told. These cookies are light and airy with a rich, deep vanilla-pecan flavor - not overwhelmingly boozy tasting. Save that for Rum Balls or fruit cake.
From 2018, Dad's Upside-Down Pecan-Apple Pie
Not only is this a recipe for dads, it's a recipe from my dad. I love the story that goes along with the recipe - and this pie is one of my absolute favorites!
From 2015, Cherry Pie Bars
This is one of those recipes that Mr. E requests every year. Probably because it's like pie and a cookie had a baby. Did I mention he has a thing for pie?
From 2010, Hot Dog and Beer Decorated Cookies
An oldie but a goodie, these beer and hot dog cookies always make me smile. Something about a black-outlined cookie really makes the design POP! If you're new to decorating cookies, this set is a good one for beginners.
From 2015, Cinnamon Sugar Waffles with Cinnamon Peanut Butter Maple Drizzle
Obviously not a dessert, but these waffles are just the ticket for making Dad breakfast in bed. That cinnamon peanut butter maple drizzle is the absolute bomb!
From 2010, Mr. E's Not-So-Key-Lime Pie
Yep, we're back to pie. What do you do when you want Key Lime Pie, but there are no Key Limes at the store? You whip up this Not-So-Key-Lime Pie and serve dad the first slice. (Then, you eat two while you're storing any leftovers.)
From 2017, Guinness-Vanilla Bean Frosted Mocha Brownies
From 2019, Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie
Another ice cream pie? Yes, please! You will not believe how easy this is to make! Do it a day or two in advance so you can enjoy the day with dear old dad!
From 2021, Easy Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
These cookies! Normally when I make cookies, we eat our fair share and give the rest away. However, the first time I made these, Mr. E requested that we keep the entire batch to enjoy at home.
I'd love to hear your dad's favorite desserts! Maybe we'll recreate them on the blog! Let me know!
