CHOCOLATE PICNIC CAKE

Chocolate Picnic Cake image

Rich, moist and chocolaty, this scrumptious cake is very versatile. It freezes well...and the chocolate chip topping makes it easy to pack in lunches and carry along to picnics. At home, we like it topped with vanilla ice cream.

11 MAKE-AHEAD PICNIC DESSERTS - ALLRECIPES

From allrecipes.com

Triple Berry Cheesecake Poke Cake. View Recipe. Poke cake is one dessert that actually often gets better after several hours in the fridge. That's the strategy we call for in this mash-up recipe, which combines everything you love about sheet cake, cheesecake, and a berry pie all in one semi-homemade recipe.
Apple Hand Pies. View Recipe. Apple pie à la mode sings, "Summer!" if you ask us, but toting a whole pie to a picnic (then fussing with slicing and serving it without dumping said slices on the ground) sounds like a potentially frustrating endeavor.
Lemon and Raspberry Trifle in Mason Jars. View Recipe. Zero oven time and zero picnic day work is required to bring these pretty parfaits to the picnic. A sherry-spiked lemon sauce, lemon curd, and lemon zest offer a triple-play of freshness that pairs beautifully with cubes of store-bought pound cake and fresh strawberries.
Scotcharoos. View Recipe. Bar cookies are among the best make-ahead dessert ideas for every occasion. From bake sales to backyard picnics, you can't go wrong with a classic Scotcheroo recipe.
Strawberry Cheesecake Lemon Bars. View Recipe. We love the trick recipe creator Shawnee uses to perk up the lemon-flavored boxed cake mix even more. Instead of using milk or water in the cake batter, incorporate lemonade instead.
