Yankee Doodle Dessert Cups

Uncle Sam never looked so sweet! 

These clever butterscotch pudding cups — with Oreo cookies hidden inside the hats — are the perfect patriotic and portable treat for your 4th of July celebration. Kids will have fun making them, and everyone will enjoy eating them. Bonus: No baking required. Because who wants to spend hours in the kitchen during the summer? Not me!

For instructions on how to make this easy, holiday food craft, check out my She Knows tutorial.

Happy Fourth of July feasting!

 

Taste the Explosion!

How about a 4th of July treat that's fun and sweet to eat? 

Last year, I made some KABOOM Cakelettes with Pop Rocks inside. So this year, I adapted the idea into candy bottle rockets. Just fill some straws with Pop Rocks, stack some patriotic-colored Life Savers (hard & gummy), and top them off with cone-shaped Airhead candies. You'll have an interactive & edible centerpiece with plenty of TNT for your tastebuds.
