Portable Desserts For A BBQ

Our answer

A dessert that needs to be transported for two hours or more can rule out most dairy and egg-based options, though accompanying cream or yogurt can be taken in a small cool bag. A traybake such as Nigella's Chocolate Sheet Cake is a good option as it can be baked and transported in the same pan for ease.

Brownies are universally popular and Nigella has several recipes but you could try Nigella's Bacon Brownies for a slightly different and unusual brownie, or for a zero baking option that is likely to be popular with all age groups try Rocky Road Crunch Bars or Marshmallow Crispy Squares, though both will need to be kept cool if it is hot weather. Nigella's book NIGELLA SUMMER also has lots of ideas for summer entertaining, and BBQs.
