Click here for Part Three of the 15 Delicious Dessert Sauces.
Today I'm sharing the next five sauces, because we can never have too many to refer to when we prepare desserts.
You might notice that three of the recipes were written by Grace Viall Gray of Glen Ellyn, Ill. So who was she? She was an associate professor of Home Economics at Iowa State College and later the Director of Gray Institute of Home Economics in Chicago. She was also the author of numerous books.
I hope you enjoy these recipes. Share your own in the linky below.
Have a great Thursday,

ReplyDeleteYum, I do love those dessert sauces. The last few months I have been putting berry sauces (and berry jams that didn't quite set enough) over ice cream. And boy, that is one easy way to get through your stash of sauces and jams quickly (maybe a little TOO quickly ;)). Thanks for sharing these.
ReplyDeleteThese dessert sauces look delicious. Thanks for sharing them. In return I am sharing a recipe - it is for oatmeal raisin cookies. The recipe was my great grandmother's and has been passed down the generations. I hope you enjoy and have a great week! --Alissa
