The Best Potluck Desserts No One Thinks to Bring

Chocolate Chip Cookie Delight 

This is a simple chocolate delight recipe for any type of potluck occasion, and the pan always comes home empty.

Rhubarb Custard Bars 

The shortbreadlike crust and the rhubarb and custard layers inspire people to find rhubarb that they can use to fix a batch for themselves.

Brownie Bourbon Bites 

Chocolate and chopped pecans flavor these simple, spirited treats. Make a double batch so you can give some as gifts and savor the rest!

Apple Fritter Cake 

I was experimenting with a beer bread to make it into a dessert and came up with this delectable apple fritter cake.

Caramel Snickerdoodle Bars 

This snickerdoodle-blondie hybrid proved even better with caramel, always a favorite ingredient.

Cannoli Dip 

I made up the cannoli filling and broke up some ice cream waffle shells to use as "chips and dip"—it was an instant hit!

Cranberry Crunch Cake 

The marshmallows melt and seep through the cake, making it moist and very tasty. It’s great for brunch or just with a cup of coffee!

Cinnamon Bun Cookies 

These cookies give you the taste of a cinnamon roll in cookie form—no yeast required! They look like flattened cinnamon rolls and feel special enough to serve around the holidays.
