B�s Cherry Pie
Put everything in the fridge and let it get cold - yes even the Cherry Pie Filling.
1 - Pre-made Graham Cracker Crust from the
Supermarket
1 can Cherry Pie Filling (chilled in the fridge)
1 pack Jello Instant Pudding � Cheesecake
Flavor
Mix up the pudding � I usually use a little less milk than the directions on the box say � pour it in the crust. Put in the fridge until it sets up � 5 minutes or more.
Spoon on the Cherry Pie Filling and spread it out.
You can decorate the top with Cool Whip if you want to � but it doesn�t need it for the taste.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake.
Dip a choc chip cookie into sherry (or port, whisky etc). Cover both sides in whipped double cream. Keep doing this and build up a log of choc chip cookies - as long as you want.
Cover the log in whipped double cream (no need to do the bottom) and decorate with bits of choc flake, Smarties or whatever.
Best made in advance so that the biscuits have time to soften.

The easiest ever pud - CreamyToffee Meringue
1 packet meringue nests (crushed), 1 pt whipping cream (whipped)& 1 jar Dulce de leche (banoffe pie filling, found with the jams or cooking ingredients.
Line a flan dish with cling film and put half the meringue shells on top. cover with half the whipped cream then freeze. After 40 mins cover the frozen cream with the dulce de leche and top this with the other half of whipped cream. Finallly press in the remaining meringue shells and put back in the freezer until about hour before needed.
Take out of the dish, peel off the cling film and put on a plate. You can sprinkle with cocoa if you want it to look pretty!
I guarantee you people will love it!!! I have been making this for years, before Dulce de Leche was available in the shops I used to boil a can of condensed milk for three hours to make the toffee, this was a real pain as you had to keep topping up the pan so it didn't explode!
