4 Easy Desserts That Won Big at State & County Fairs | Allrecipes

Looking for award-winning desserts that are actually easy to make? In this video, Nicole shares four prize-worthy treats that start with simple shortcuts (like boxed mix and ready-made dough) but deliver big on flavor—and blue ribbons. These recipes have wowed county fair judges and state fair crowds, and now they’re ready for your kitchen.

She kicks things off with a Peaches & Cream Pie that magically forms its own crust using vanilla pudding mix, followed by a super-rich Too Much Chocolate Cake that’s taken home first prize. Next up: a classic All-Butter Pound Cake that’s a Kentucky blue ribbon winner, and finally, a Salted Two-Way Brownie made with boxed brownie mix, chocolate chip cookie dough, and a caramel drizzle that won over judges at the North Carolina State Fair.
Whether you’re baking for a crowd or just want something sweet and simple, these fair-tested desserts are guaranteed to impress.
