Strawberry season is just beginning here in California, so of course I went strawberry wild and bought a flat. I’m so glad I did, they are perfect – sweet and ripe. For this strawberry dessert I paired it against a light and fluffy lemonade flavored whipping cream.
I had planned on making this into a cake but I realized someone accidentally threw away my cake helpers-ahem, Matt.
Salted Peanut No-Bake Cheesecake ~ This is a no fuss elegant dessert that comes together quickly.
High baking season has started and I tend to get a little crazy with it. While I love it, Matt hates the process but loves the treats that come from it. Running an oven nearly 24/7 from now until January turns our little place into a 2 month long sauna session. For that reason I’m easing into it with this no-bake recipe.
You’ll find the recipe for this Salted Peanut No-Bake Cheesecake over at Endless Simmer where I contribute a weekly dessert.
Fruit Pops ~ Get crafty for a pure and simple summer fruit pop that requires no special machine and no freeze time.
Grab your favorite fruit, cookie cutter and some popsicle sticks and get ready to be the neighborhood hero.
These are really so simple and the idea came to me when I was making fruit kebabs for my little guy and his friends. What kid doesn’t like a popsicle, right? Of course my 3-year-old liked them even more because he helped make them and was so proud to show them off to his buddies.
So did I fool the other kids? I’m not sure, but not one of them balked or blinked when they realized it was fruit and not the traditional sugar laden variation of a popsicle. Although trying to pull that off with kids over the age of 3 might be a little tougher.
A few notes:
