What should I bring? (food related)
So best friend just asked if I would be willing to bring a supplemental dessert for her son's christening on Sunday. I said absolutely, especially since she is about to lose her mind 
Any suggestions as to what to bring? They will have a cake already and I thought about doing a fruit platter with dip but there will already be one of those on the food buffet. There will be about 50 people there.
I was thinking some kind of bar or bite size treat that could be taken in addition to the cake. Thoughts? Suggestions? Bueller?

I made these Oreo Cheesecake Bars for a party a few weeks ago and they were amazing. If I did it again, I'd cut them smaller than I did and take the suggestion on the recipe of serving them on cupcake papers.
For fruit desserts, I make these blueberry bars a lot and they're always well received
what about like a fruit bar, like raspberry or peach crumble bars, or lemon blueberry bars/buckle?
Or mini cheesecakes made in muffin tins? I think I have a recipe saved for oreo cheesecakes with an oreo in the bottom for the crust....
haha, great minds!
That was totally weird

These? are amazing.

I'm trying to avoid chocolate because the cake is chocolate (I should have mentioned it before).
I like the idea of a fruit bar and had been thinking of like a lemon/raspberry bar but like the idea of a crumble kind of thing as well.
Nooner- I was looking through PLFF and got a lot of ideas and might do salted caramel blondies or your non-recipe of rice krispie treat "cupcakes" because there will be a lot of little kids there that I think would love them...plus rice krispie treats are so cheap to make, winning!
Ames and Beth- those recipes are now saved on my computer, gracias!
omg, those blondies are to die for. I really need to make those again. And totally agree that the mini rice krispie treats would be way kid friendly.
Here's the Blueberry Oatmeal Crumble Bars I have saved. And Lemon Blueberry Buckle. You could easily sub raspberry too. Apparently I have blueberries on the brain.
im making caramel crumb bars for Andys Grandpa's 80th this weekend.
its basically a shortbread bottom, dulce de leche, and a crumb top (the shortbread reserved with more butter and sugar and flour added). its easy and delicious. it tastes like a See's Candy Lollipop.
These are in fact amazing.
Stand up for something you believe in.
I could probably eat a whole pan of something like this right now. Sounds amazing!
I did these for a baby shower last month and people still ask me to bring more of them... they are devine!
