Every time I want to duplicate someone's idea, I do it with gusto thanks to this quote by Pablo Picasso: "Bad artists copy. Good artists steal.”
That said, I totally copied Katrina's Super Bowl Sundaes last week for my post on Elizabeth Street. I thought I could simplify her steps, make ingredient adjustments, and it would be totally awesome. It wasn't terrible, but you be the judge.
The best thing that came from it was that I discovered a quick trick to make dessert bowls special. I lined all the bowls with regular decorator icing and then poured in sprinkles. All the sprinkles stayed on like glue. It was beautiful and playful and so easy. I would love to make it ahead for an ice cream social. Wouldn't a bunch of these bowls be so pretty lined up for a party? I should have stopped at this step!
Buy these mini latte bowls from Anthropologie or Paris ;)
