10 Memorial Day Desserts

]]> Memorial Day is all about spending time with family and friends. Here are ten dessert ideas that are fast to make, offer a hint of summer, and are positively delicious!

cupcakes


  1. Fruit Pizza
    This one has a cookie dough crust with cream cheese filling. They recommend rolling out a ready to use sugar cookie dough. Top with the fruit of your choice.
  2. Angel Lush
    If you’re looking for something different to do with angel food cake, this might be the recipe for you. With ingredients like pineapple, pudding, and Cool Whip, it’s also an easy one to make.
  3. Ice Cream With Fruit
    What could be easier than a bowl of vanilla ice cream topped with fresh fruit?
  4. Lemon Creme With Blackberries
    Tofu helps this recipe come alive.
  5. Red Velvet Cupcakes
    Cupcakes are always a great thing for cookouts and family gatherings. Red velvet cake helps set the stage for a festival treat!
  6. Stars and Stripes Cake
    You’ve seen this everywhere, but it’s still a great recipe. Ordinary cake is transformed into a flag with berries. What could be better?
  7. Mini Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches
    These are easy to make, and satisfy a sweet tooth on a hot day.
  8. Classic Lemon Meringue Pie
    This old favorite never gets old.
  9. Patriotic Smores
    I love the idea of using pink marshmallows to help make this dessert more “patriotic” and fun. Gather round the campfire!
  10. Pina Colada Cupcakes
    How about some rum to go with those cupcakes?

Flag Cake for the Fourth of July

]]>
flag cake

Every midwest mom has a different variation of this patriotic dessert. I like the one pictured, using chocolate cake and white icing. The constant in all of the recipes is that a flag is created on the top of the cake using blueberries for the stars and strawberries for the stripes. For some other Flag Cake ideas, see:
