Strawberry Cheesecake Trifle - I use a no-bake cheesecake recipe and fresh strawberries layered with Cool Whip and chunks of angel food cake. Delish!

My summertime favorite is panna cotta. It is cool and light-- but still decadent tasting and so simple to make. I like to serve it on top of pureed fruit.

Vodka IN watermelon! Get a turkey baster. Drill some holes randomly across the top and upper sides of the melon. Fill the baster with vodka, insert as far as possible into a hole, and squeeze until you meet resistance or the vodka start squirting back. Repeat with remaining holes. Let sit, ideally in cold place (fridge, cooler with ice, etc.). Slice, cube, or make balls, and enjoy.

Granita! Preferably chocolate. I make mine without the cream, so no fat, icy and refreshing. You can also substitute brandy or espresso for the liqueur.

If you want to bake:

Toll House Pie:
Basically it is cookie dough baked in a pie pan and sliced into wedges served warm with vanilla ice cream.

Fruit Pizza- Bake sugar cookie dough in a pizza pan and cool. Blend 1 pk. cream cheese with about 1/4 cup confectioners sugar and a dash of vanilla. Spread thinly on base and top with tons of fresh fruit- berries, peaches, kiwi, oranges, anything.

If you don't want to bake:

1. Pineapple slices on the grill sprinkled w brown sugar, served w vanilla ice cream.

2. Angel Food Layer Cake- Buy an angel food cake and slice it like a bagel. Spread a pint of sorbet or sherbet in the middle and put it back together. Leave in the freezer for 10 minutes and slice.

3. Smores (even better when made with Nutella instead of chocolate bars)

4. Raspberry Mango Parfaits- Layer raspberry yogurt, fresh raspberries, fresh mango chunks and either granola or cookie crumbs in a parfait glass.

5. Old School 'Ohana- Fresh pineapple with caramel sauce to dip it in!

I think I'm in love with you I don't usually swing that way but I'm willing to make an exception for you

Easy Ice Cream Cake
line bottom of pan with ice cream sandwiches

Freeze until about 10 min before serving.

Eton Mess! Strawberries, cream and crushed meringue.

 

[Squirrel!!!]

I grew up calling it "Jello Pokey Cake"...but the white cake that you poke holes in and pore jello through it, refrigerate, once set, top with cool whip.

Strawberry Shortcake, or any fresh berry shortcake.

Fresh Blueberry pie.

Angel food cake - frosted with whipped cream which has been flavored with confectioner's sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder and vanilla and mint extracts. Chill before serving. Light but very satisfying.
