campfire dessert bar overview

To get set up, we just plopped some small Oreos, marshmallows, chocolate chips, and Milky Way bites in bowls.  Then we cut up some bananas, pound cake, and thawed out a 10 ounce package of strawberries.  For toppings we had chocolate and caramel sauce and to stick with our red, white, and blue camp party theme we wrapped the spray whip cream in duck tape…

DUCK TAPE COOL WHIP CONTAINERS

Just measure around can and then cut strips of duck tape 1/2″ longer and wrap around can.  Then add a little bit of curly ribbon around the top.

OK… back to creating the dessert…

Before loading all your goodies into your foil be sure to spray it with some non-stick cooking spray.

Then add a little pad of butter and then layer in your ingredients leaving your toppings off to add after cooking.

For cooking, just close up your tinfoil at the top and lay on hot coals using fire tongues.  Cooking time will vary based on how hot your coals are and your melted preferences.  We left our dessert bundles on the hot coals about 1 minute.

After about a minute we removed from the fire with tongues and set on a safe surface to cool for a few minutes.  Please handle with care so you don’t get burned.

After a few minutes, we found we could handle the tinfoil placed on paper plates.  Then we added the toppings!!!

Oh and about that Banana Foster creation….

Spray foil and add a pad of butter.  Then layer bananas, pecans, pound cake, and Milky Way bites.  After it cooks on the fire, open it up and sprinkle with SEA SALT (Love sweet and salty!), then add a generous amount of whip cream, caramel, and chocolate sauce!!!
