Making and serving a dessert in the same dish makes life much easier, says Michelle Darmody.

The following recipes are all created so you can bake them in a cast iron pan and then place this on a board and bring it straight to the table.

Each of the desserts you can have ready ahead of time and pop into the oven towards the end of a meal, so they will be hot and deliciously warm when serving.
