All sorts of creative Red, White, and Blue crafts, recipes, and decor ideas!
We’re so excited to be a part of the Red. White, and Blue Food, Decor and Craft Ideas blog hop. There are over 80 creative ideas for 4th of July and we don’t even know where to begin! There is something for everyone so make sure to look through all of the links to get inspired before the fireworks this year.
We took our dessert pizza from a couple of weeks ago and put a fresh spin on it. We substituted the candy for seasonal fruit. It is an easy, and delicious, dessert that adults and kids will love. It is perfect for your 4th of July BBQ. The crust is made from sugar cookie dough. We rolled ours out into a 9 inch cookie to make a medium “pizza” that can be shared with friends. If you want you can make yours in individual sizes by making your crusts a regular cookie size.
We used store-bought cookie dough to save time and baked them according to the package instructions but feel free to use your favorite sugar cookie recipe if you like. Once the cookie crusts had baked and cooled we made a cream cheese frosting and spread it on like sauce on a pizza. Then we topped it with fresh strawberry slices and blueberries. When you’re ready to serve them, cut them in half or into multiple slices. Yum! I’m telling you they are sooo good!
