All Kinds Of Delicious Desserts

Like any ordinary man, most Americans love to eat especially desserts.Desserts are practically what satisfy everybody right after every meal. That is why; Americans have come up with traditional American desserts to cater to not only the Americans, but also to other dessert lovers all around the world.

There are a lot of American desserts that are very popular worldwide. Great examples are the classic American cheesecakes. These American desserts are made from cream cheese and these are added with sugar as well as vanilla essence, sour cream and lemon juice. The mixed cream is then added onto a cracker crust, and then properly chilled before they are served. American cheesecakes should not be over beaten as they could destroy the proper consistency of the cream cheese itself. Over the years, these well-loved American cheesecakes have been modified a number of times, creating more and more variations to further satisfy the needs of the dessert lovers worldwide.
Banana splits are also another examples of American desserts. With three different scoops of ice cream placed on a bowl, garnished with slices of banana, sprinkled with chocolate syrup on top, these American desserts are perfectly what kids love to have after every meal. Presently, chefs have been able to master the art of proper presentation of these banana splits that are sure ways to make people, both young and old, crave for these delightful desserts. They are delicious, they are classic, and they are healthy as well.

American Desserts are basically the same with the other desserts worldwide. While there are some that go for these traditional delights, many people are still concerned of the thought of having additional calories brought about by these desserts.

Not only they are yummy and delicious, but they are surprisingly nutritious as well. Treat yourselves with a serving or two of American desserts.

Custards are dense, rich and creamy desserts that resemble pudding. They are gently cooked or baked and then refrigerated to turn it into a slightly firm and thick gel sauce when cooled. Custards are generally made using the following ingredients: eggs and/or egg yolks, milk or cream, sugar and, often, salt and other flavorings. Some recipes for custards call for a small amount of flour or other starch such as cornstarch or potato starch.
There is a wide variety of custards. They can be made into a single dessert, such as custard pies, flans, or cheesecakes or they can be included to make a different dessert such as in making cream puffs. There are two ways to make custards for desserts. They are either oven baked or you can stir or cook them over a stove.
Baked custards use milk instead of cream and lesser eggs. Baking makes the lightest custards. The gel has a firmer texture since it is not stirred during the process of baking.
To find out if baked custard is done, insert a metal knife off its center. If it comes out clean, the custard is done. Be careful not to cook longer because the custard may curdle. On the other hand, under-baked custards will not set.
Cooking custards on top of stoves result in custards that are not as thick as when baked because the stirring interrupts the formation of the gel. Stovetop custard is typically used as a dessert sauce or a base for ice cream. Do not let stirred custards boil or set. They should be soft but thickened. After being refrigerated, stovetop custards will slightly thicken.
