.... a healthy July 4th weekend!

I hope everyone had a wonderful July 4th!  We had a very fun bbq, water fun, sparklers and healthy treats!  I saw a photo of this dessert online and had to make it for our bbq.  Here is my festive dessert:

I also made fresh whipped cream to add, just a little on top.
It is very simple to make--

I found this recipe on JoyofBaking.com

1 cup whipping cream---- you can use light whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1-2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Beat with an electric mixer--- the more you beat, the thicker it gets :)
Also, I add the sugar slowly and taste test.  I don't like to make my whipped cream too sweet, especially serving with fruit.

It was a very festive and healthy dessert treat for the 4th!
