Apple Pie Cheesecake

With Thanksgiving being tomorrow its too late to have a delicious mix on hand, but don't be discouraged. There is still plenty of time to order for Christmas! This pie is the perfect dish to bring with you to the holiday parties or dinner with the family. This is also much lighter than a full blown fruit pie. The beauty of Party Time Mixes is that there are so many dessert flavors, if you aren't an apple fan try it with Cherries Jubilee.

Watermelon Rice Krispies

Summer may be over but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy an easy and delicious treat! If you aren't a fan of watermelon (I am not!) You could totally do this same recipe but substitute the Strawberry Dessert Mix (or any of your favorite flavored Party Time Mixes Dessert or Cocktail Mixes) and get super creative with presentation.
