Custom Cookies for Every Occasion

Red, White and Blue Fruit Tray

We had such a simple Fourth of July this year. I made this red, white and blue fruit tray that you could make just about all summer! Super simple. For the fruit skewers:

  • shish kabob skewers
  • watermelon
  • blueberries
  • strawberries
  • mini star cookie cutters

All I did was cut the strawberries in half and cut some stars out of the watermelon. Then I started layering the fruit on the skewers in no particular order.

Now for the fruit dip. It was only four ingredients and it tasted like frosting from a red velvet cake.

  • 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream

Beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract until creamy. Fold in the whipping cream. You’re done!

Simple, easy, festive. Who doesn’t love fresh fruit and a little dipping sauce?

Enjoy!
