My 2 cents==> I ditto Bread Pudding above; also, chocolate cake; cobblers; crisps; slab pie; bar
cookies; brownies; baklava; cheesecake from yore (back in aught seven--and closer to the FIRST aught seven, mind you(!)--my mom used to make a no-bake fluffy cheesecake type dessert with a graham cracker crumb crust that tasted lemony, and I am pretty sure had Milnot in it. It would look pretty in your dish.); apple pandowdy; blackberry grunt (Even though grunts are typically made in iron skillets, just thicken the fruit in a saucepan and transfer it to your beautifully scalloped casserole dish before adding the dumplings on top to bake in the oven); baked fruit compote; oven-poached pears with red wine; classic baked apples filled with pecans, cinnamon, raisins, butter, and brown sugar......
