These desserts may not all be red, white and blue, but I promise they are crowd pleasers. An will fill your belly up. And leave you wanting more. And they may hurt your teeth. In a good way.

 

 

Not-Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

Love the variety of these strawberries. There is always something for everyone! Even the pickiest of eaters. Unless that picky eater hates strawberries. In that case. . . well, that’s not possible, right?

 

 

S’mores Brownies

Summer = cookouts and bonfires and cookouts and bonfires = s’mores. And these brownies are even more fun that regular ole’ s’mores. And worse for your waistline. It all evens out.

 

 

Homemade Peppermint Patties

The peppermint patties must be kept cold, so they are a tasty, refreshing treat on those hot summer days. Especially if you are like me and sweat like a man. Or, you are a man.

 

 

Strawberry-Lime Stuffed Cupcakes

Much more fun that regular cupcakes. You could top this with blueberries for a red, white and blue theme, too.

 

 

Chocolate Chewies

Chewies are one of my favorite desserts. But they go fast. Make sure to bake a lot of them. Especially if I’m coming to your party.

 

 

Ice Cream Crepes

Ah, finally –  here we have some red, white and blue. These are such a fabulous recipe, but must be kept cold up until serving time. I promise they are worth it – and they can be made days ahead of time.

 

 

How are you celebrating your weekend? What are you making that is delicious?

Have a fabulous 4th of July!
