Good recipes for a bake sale?

Me and my gal friends are planning to have a bake sale soon. We were thinking about contacting our local Wal-mart and asking if we could sell some baked goods outside their store. Or really any store in our town.


But we need some good recipes for things to sell. I don't mind what you post as long as it's yummy! :)Good recipes for a bake sale?
I don't bake but I buy, instead of pretty I want tasty, so I buy what I know is good and that is chocolate chip cookies and brownies, I like the homemade aspect of bake sale, If I want professional then I'll go in the store and buy. Oatmeal cookies, peanut butter cookies , just ask your friends what they like, Cookies are easy and fast and you can make so many kind.Good recipes for a bake sale?
If it's hot where you live, you don't want anything with icing, or chocolate, that will melt .....





LEMON BARS


1/2 c. powdered sugar


2 sticks butter


2 c. flour


* * *


4 eggs


2 c. sugar


4 TB. flour


1/2 c. lemon juice


powdered sugar


......Mix first 3 ingredients as you would for a piece crust (until crumbly) and press into bottom of 9x13'; pan. Bake at 350 for about 20 min, or until done ..... Beat together next 4 ingredients for 1 min. Pour on top of baked crust (Lemon topping will look strange %26amp; thin, but 4 TB flour is correct). Bake at 350 for 20 min, or until done. Cool 7-10 min; cut into pieces %26amp; sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Coffee cake is really good

Hello,


Here is a link to a great bake sale item that I always sell out of! Especially if you a leave a small tray out for sampling! http://www.the-chocolate-spot.com/soda-c鈥?/a> They are very east to make and taste like English Toffee. Also snack mixes tend to go well in my area.





Good Luck, I hope you make lots of money!

You should make Giant muffins or cupcakes, lemon bars, brownies, slices of cake, cookie packs of 3 or 2 large cookies.
rice krispie bars are always a hit!
Even though it is not baked, fudge always sells well at bake sales - sell it by the piece or wrap several pieces together to sell. Cookies, brownies, bars, muffins and cupcakes are always good sellers as well.

2/3 cup evaporated milk


1 12-oz. (340 g) package semi-sweet chocolate chips

This is a variation of Fantasy Fudge that is even better than the original. If you use vanilla extract in place of the liqueur, you have the Original Fantasy Fudge recipe.





Irish Cr猫me Fudge





I also use other liqueurs in place of the Irish Creme such as Kahlua, bandy, Kirsch, spiced/flavored rum and the new flavors of Kahlua mixing and matching nuts, coconut and dried fruits to match the liqueurs. You can use 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract in place of the liqueur.





3/4 cup of butter


3 cups sugar


2/3 cup evaporated milk


1 7-ounce jar Kraft marshmallow cr猫me


12 ounce bag semi-sweet chocolate chips


1 bottle (airline size or nip) or 1 shot Irish Cr猫me


2 cups walnuts or pecans - optional


2 8-inch square pans sprayed with non-stick spray





In a heavy 3 quart sauce pan - I prefer an enameled cast iron -melt butter, sugar and evaporated milk. Bring to a boil, turn down heat to a low boil and cook for 5 minutes.





Turn off heat and mix in marshmallow cr猫me. Once that is incorporated, mix in the chocolate chips until mixture is an even chocolate color then add the Irish cr猫me and nuts, mixing thoroughly.





Pour mixture into pans and cool thoroughly before cutting into squares and serving.
