Are you still looking for some fun red, white and blue recipes to help you celebrate Independece Day? Here are some fun ideas we will be bringing to our family celebration this year.
The first dessert is so simple, but absolutely delicious. And depending on the amount of cool whip or real whipping cream you use, fairly healthy. We had this for dessert earlier this week. Yum!
Then I saw these fun sugar cookies and immediately commisioned my kids to help me make some. Here is the tutorial video from Family Fun we watched to learn how to make them. (This link takes you to the videos but you need to click on the picture of the sugar cookies below the video to get the instructions for the cookies. For some reason I can’t get it to play the cookie video instead of the popsicle video). They are so easy and quite tasty!
We also saw the idea on Family Fun for making these fun popsicles.
Here is the link for the how-to-video. They were also very easy to make. Just make sure you give yourself some time to freeze each layer in between so that you have distinct color separations.
My kids thought these were so yummy. My husband even had two in one sitting. They are going to be perfect after our delicious 4th of July BBQ on a hot summer day.

Thanks for the ideas – we are hosting a BBQ this year, the pops will be a big hit.
Cool treats. I always do strawberries dipped in white chocolate then blue sprinkles. They are always a big hit.
Thanks for all these ideas. I was just coming on trying to find some fun things to make for 4th of July treats. These are perfect!
Those are great ideas and look so yummy!
I hope you really are bringing these, only it isn't a hot summer day. :(
Lot of good yummy treats!…Amy I'm going to link this up in my I'm Lovin' it post this week, if that's ok….I'm linking up Patriotic things I've seen on blog – will be up tomorrow evening.
It looks like the links for the cookies & pops don’t work any more, but I found them in the Fourth of July category. If you click on the link they also have a page with the video & written directions, which is awesome. Here are the new links ~
