Kids Christmas lunch dessert

[SwimmingFree]

The desserts I'm doing for Christmas lunch are a bit grown up (think dark chocolate and booze). We have 6 kids ages 2-12 coming and I want to make something fun and tasty for them.

Anyone have any winning recipes for kids? Thanks

A standard Yule log is my kids choice

We just let the kids attack the Yule log and if they want something else jelly and ice cream is always a winner.

A couple of Viennettas 🙂

I came on to say Vienetta too! The kids will love it.

Can't go wrong with chocolate Yule log, surely.

Individual chocolate mousse, so easy to make and then a little selection of things to sprinkle on top, like stars, marshmallows etc

Yule log for the win!

Yule log and ice cream here, this is usually on Christmas eve, day and boxing day 😀😀😀

Ice cream station. My DDs would not touch Yule log, I did give them vienetta once, they weren’t fussed. They would happily eat a bowl of ice cream and cover it in thinks they like.

My go to desert is a smorgasbord of sweet options to cover DDs & us, meringue, luxury popcorn, berries, candy floss, mini chocolate elf’s etc..last year my DDs had bowls of ice cream and decorated them with what they wanted. I will be doing the same this year.

I was going to suggest ice cream with toppings/sauces e.g. sprinkles, mini marshmallows, sauce

I've ordered a chocolate smash cake from sainsburys. I think I must have been drunk when I ordered, as it serves 18. (They'll only be 6 of us and DP and I won't eat it)

These are fab ideas, thank you so much!

I'm not sure why I didn't think about a Yule log

I love the idea of ice cream with loads of topping, kids would like that and it would suit the different ages and likes!

I'd go jelly and ice cream / make your own sundae type thing.

I wouldn't give them vienetta personally, but I am a bit of an ice cream snob! Ice cream is clearly far too important to me 😂

Went to Asda and bought a Rudolph Yule Log (kind of like a Colin caterpillar but Rudolph themed!) il serve it with ice cream or warm custard whatever my child wants! I also will make a jelly to go with ice cream have some ice cream sauces and wafers. Keep it simple!
