Dad-Approved Desserts for Father's Day

Something funny that happens around here is that Mark will often comment, "This recipe is in my Top 10 desserts." He's said that, oh, about 37 times. 


Here are some desserts that have been absolute hits...and in the "top 10"...for both him and my dad over the years.

What is it about dads that makes them love oatmeal raisin cookies? Seriously. I've wondered about this my entire life. This recipe for oatmeal BOURBON raisin cookies is a winner...even for self-professed raisin haters! 



lime pie

Who says you HAVE TO have Key Limes to make a great Key Lime Pie? OK...maybe technically, that's a fact, but you can still make a fantastic lime pie without them. This one is always a major hit with the men around here.

I'll admit that I could put EVERY ice cream and ice cream pie on my husband's "top 10" list. This is WAY up on the list! This peanut butter ice cream pie is literally 5 ingredients! 


7-Layer Cookies

No dad can resist the 7-Layer Cookie! Add a scoop of ice cream, and you're really going to win the Favorite Kid Award! 


Dad's Upside-Down Pecan-Apple Pie

This pie is FLIPPED once baked, and that brown sugar-pecan top makes this pie so special. Maybe every pie should have a brown-sugar pecan crust. Pie + Dad = a Happy Father's Day.

Speaking of pie, make these cherry pie bars! They're a cross between and sugar cookie and a cherry pie. Every time I make them, Mark asks me to make them again. ;) 



Kahlua Ice Cream Dream Cake

This cool and creamy make-ahead dessert is scrumptious and feeds a small army - we're talking a crowd of 18-24! 


I want to know if you make one of these for your dad! Snap a photo and tag me on Instagram: @bridget350
