5 Minute Mexican Dessert Recipes

Some of the tastiest Mexican recipes for desserts are those, which do not take very long to put together. You might want to make an elaborate Mexican cinnamon chocolate cake, and that type of recipe is worth the effort of course, but other times you might just fancy something quick and easy.

Mexicans like fresh produce and this includes fruit as well as vegetables. You can serve fruit with sugar over the top or with dulce de leche, which is a Mexican caramel sauce. Try sprinkling both sugar and chili powder over your sliced fruit, for a real Mexican flavor.

Desserts Food

If you are in a rush and you fancy something Mexican for dessert, what about adapting an existing dessert to give it a Mexican flavor? You can melt some Mexican chocolate and drizzle it over cake, sandwich cookies together with dulce de leche or serve your favorite ice cream in a flour tortilla.

Flour tortillas are perhaps the most versatile Mexican ingredient to work with, because you can use them for both savory and sweet Mexican recipes. Fill tortillas with ice cream, whipped cream, and ice cream syrup for a two minute dessert. Add chopped nuts, marshmallows or whatever else you like.

Banana Chimichangas

To make a delicious hot dessert, you could melt a quarter cup of butter in a skillet, then stir in three sliced bananas and half a cup of brown sugar. When the sugar is dissolved, add a couple of tablespoons of spiced rum or a few drops of vanilla extract and cook the mixture for a minute or two. Divide this mixture between two tortillas and roll them up.

To make banana chimichangas, you could fry these tortilla roll-ups in oil until golden brown. Alternatively, just serve them as they are with some whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Substitute peach, plum, or any other soft fruit for the banana if you like. Mango would be another good idea, or papaya.

If you do not want to make chimichangas, you can serve the banana sauce hot over vanilla ice cream. Perhaps you fancy serving some tortilla chips with them, in which case you can cut flour tortillas into triangles, spray them with cooking oil, sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over them and bake them for five minutes at 400 degrees F.

Hot Cinnamon Roll Ups

Another great flour tortilla recipe is to butter one side of a tortilla, then sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar and a teaspoon of cinnamon over the butter. Roll the tortilla up and butter the other side. Sprinkle a little more sugar and cinnamon over it and then bake it for a few minutes at 375 degrees F.

This crispy, golden brown treat takes about a minute to prepare and can be served ice cream, whipped cream or a can of fruit pie filling for an ultra-fast dessert. Obviously this one will take longer to make if you have to preheat the oven, so it is best to do that in advance or use an oven, which is already hot from cooking another recipe.

5 Minute Mexican Dessert Recipes

Not all Mexican recipes take a long time to prepare and you can make some really mouthwatering Mexican dessert recipes in just a couple of minutes, if you have the right ingredients.

Quick Thanksgiving Desserts for Those Last Minute Procrastinators

Thanksgiving is a time to gather with loved ones and eat turkey!

Now everyone has office meetings the day before Thanksgiving or school thanksgiving meals. Many family's are getting together to enjoy a nice time together around an old tradition of Thanksgiving feasts.

Desserts Food

Where did the tradition first start?

Well, there is not a hundred percent consensus on this, but the pilgrims that landed on Plymouth Rock in the Middle of winter would have starved to death if it had not been for the help of the Natives.

History shows the Europeans actually were starving to death. This prompted the natives to have mercy and help feed the Europeans for the Winter.

In the Spring, the Native taught the Europeans how to plant corn to survive in America. Now as most already know, the Europeans end up biting the hand that fed them and declared all out war on the natives as they build cities moving westward.

Now there is an erroneous teaching the corn came from the natives and was never eaten by the Europeans before. That simply is not true. The King James Bible written in 1611 has many references to corn in it, showing the Europeans ate corn before the Mayflower.

Long story short, so we gather our families together and eat turkey in commemoration. You may be very busy cooking your turkey and running out of time, or just need a quick desert to brink to your relatives and here it is.

Desert Name: Mud

1 big bag of Oreo cookies

2-3 tubs of Kool Whip

Bag of Oreo Crumbs

1 bag of Gummy Worms-optional

Directions:

1. In large bowl crush the Oreo cookies until no large cookies remain.

2. Add 2 or 3 tubs of Kool Whip and Mix with a Mixer for 30 seconds or less

3. Pour contents into a New Clean bowl and sprinkle crumbles liberally on top

4. Add Gummy Worms on top if desired and now your ready to serve.

Remember this dish is only good for 24-48 hours if kept in the refrigerator because the cookie crumbs get soggy. Enjoy!/b>

Desserts in a Hurry - How to Make 15 Minute Desserts

It is possible to make desserts in fifteen minutes, which is good news if you suddenly have a craving for something sweet or if you have some last minute guests. One of the best ways to do this is to always make sure you have the right staples stocked in your pantry and refrigerator. You can make a basic dessert using a can of fruit and some whipped cream, a scoop of ice cream and a handful of cookies or a packet of instant pudding, some milk, and a pre-made pie crust.

Some instant pudding can be transformed into a pie or a layered dessert. Do not be afraid to add ingredients to dessert mixes and make them unique. A good dessert does not have to be made from scratch and you might be surprised to learn that not everything is made from scratch in restaurants, even top restaurants, because these days there are so many mixes and packets that we can use to help up.

That is not to say that we have to live on boxed food or packet mixtures but if you are in a rush, you can use something like that as a basis for your quick and easy dessert recipe.

Making Quick Yet Tasty Desserts

Fruit can be transformed into something special in as little as fifteen minutes with the addition of some ice cream, whipped cream, and ice cream syrup. Perhaps you have some marshmallows, raisins or chocolate chips lying around, in which case you can use those too.

There are so many desserts you can make on the fly. What about making homemade ice cream sandwiches by sandwiching vanilla ice cream and chocolate chips between store-bought cookies? You can buy pre-made crepes or tortillas if you do not want to make your own, and fill them with whipped cream and fresh fruit.

Take chances and combine different flavors to come up with exciting desserts. Experimenting is the best way to discover new dessert recipes. Remember that fruit trifle was only invented because somebody messed up a cake recipe. A culinary mistake can turn into something delicious and impressive which your family will like a lot.

Recipe for Lime Infused Mexican Strawberries

This delicious and easy dessert is perfect if you happen to enjoy Mexican dessert recipes. Feel free to substitute Grand Marnier or another orange liqueur for the Kahlua.

Also, you could use lemon juice instead of the lime juice. This is a light and refreshing dessert which is ideal if you are pressed for time or if you want something light and fruity rather than heavy.

You will need:

1 lb hulled, sliced fresh strawberries
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 tablespoon Kahlua (Mexican chocolate liqueur)
2 tablespoons white sugar

How to make it:

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and let it stand for about ten minutes, or until the strawberries release their juice. Stir the dessert a couple of times during this time. Serve chilled, either alone or with whipped cream or a scoop of good quality vanilla ice cream on the side.




There are so many tasty Mexican dessert recipes and other recipes that you can make quickly if you are in a rush. A lot of Mexican recipes are based on fresh produce and simple flavors, making them perfect if you have last minute guests or a sudden craving for something sweet.
