DESSERTS

A sweet ending to a meal is a lot easier in the microwave oven. Quick to make, delicious to eat, these desserts offer something for everyone. We have selected those that do well in the microwave oven. Candies, for example, are excellent when prepared the microwave way.

To get the most even cooking, plan to make desserts in a deep glass pie plate where possible. Use a paper towel as a cover for bar cookies to equalize the cooking process. It peels off easily when done. Appearances are not what we are accustomed to seeing, but frosting or a dusting of confectioner's sugar helps create eye appeal.

Crumb pie shells do quite well in the microwave, as do most fruit desserts. To get a head start on pie fillings, simply heat in a large glass measure; stir well to distribute the heat, then pour into the prepared pie shell.

High sugar mixtures get very hot in the microwave so use great care(and hot pads) when handling.
