PINK PARTY SQUARES

This recipe was given to my Mother in law and it is one of those special always-at-the-holidays sweets. They are very sweet, so cutting them in very small squares is usually how we do it. I just guessed at the servings because it really depends on how you cut it.

PINK LADY SQUARES

This is another of our family favorites that makes for an excellent addition to the serving tray. Looks very appealing on the holiday platter and great for special occasions. I often substitute the graham crumbs with crushed Nillas. Just as good untinted - but as my mom reminds me " always make the icing using the juice from a real lemon" - realemon will work but she's right ... that lemon juice makes for awesome!

Tips:

For a smoother mousse, make sure the heavy cream is very cold before whipping it.
If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off.
Garnish the dessert with fresh berries or chocolate shavings for a more festive look.
For a variation on the recipe, try using strawberry or raspberry preserves instead of cherry pie filling.
If you don't have any graham cracker crumbs, you can use crushed Oreos or Nilla wafers.
