Perfect Picnic Fare
June 25, 2009 at 12:00 am | In Baking / Cooking, Food | 28 CommentsHave you checked out the July/August issue of VegNews yet? This is one must-read, packed with so many fun summer ideas and recipes, I’m still working my way through it myself! Of course, there’s also my article about picnic treats that I hinted about before, and you’ve got to trust me when I say that you don’t want to miss these sweets. Think of creamy, cool, and refreshing banana pudding… But as a more portable, mess-free cookie bar.
Yes, banana pudding bars! Every bit as delectable as the original, built for the demands of a picnic, requiring much less fuss, and no bowls or utensils.
And then there are the coconut drops. Essentially big, soft, and chewy macaroons, one bite will transport you to a tropical paradise, even if you’re really just sitting out in your backyard.
Haven’t yet subscribed? Don’t worry, you can now get a tree-free version of VegNews delivered right to your inbox, no paper, no mailing delays. Now start preheating your oven, a sweet picnic is just waiting to happen!

I just got it the other day and trust me, the coconut drops have been saved for sometime soon!

I was so excited to see some of your recipes in the summer issue!
I’m even more excited to try both of them!
I am just wondering, are you writing another book?
LOVE.

Wow, these both look like amazing treats! Perfect for picnics. A email version of the mag is a great idea. I seriously have too many magazine on the bookshelf already.

I just got this issue! The treats look fantastic; I’m really excited about those pudding bars. My summer is seriously lacking in the picnic department – I’ve got to step up the pace.

I’m months behind in reading my magazines, but I’m definitely looking forward to the banana pudding bars. I just made banana pudding a few weeks ago, soooo good!

I just made these today and they didn’t set at all. Where did I go wrong. I followed the recipe. Any ideas?
