STAR SPANGLED RECIPES

Steps:

• PATRIOTIC PUNCH: Place strawberries in ice cube tray, add water. Freeze. Add frozen blueberries in your glassware, add water, then place strawberry ice cubes on top. Enjoy you're stripped beverage!
• FIRECRACKER DONUTS: Fill donut with jelly mixed with edible sparkles. Mix 2 cups powdered sugar together with 1 tbsp milk then divide into 3 bowls, add red and blue coloring to one bowl each then drizzle this into the bowl of white frosting, dip donuts in. Add more white on top if the frosting starts to turn purple.
• STARS & STRIPES SANGRIA: Cut a quarter out of a watermelon, then remove some of the fruit. With an immersion blender blend the watermelon until you have a juice and add amber rum and white wine to taste. Serve in glasses with ice cubes and additional fruit. If you're feeling really festive, carve the front of your watermelon into an American flag, using blue berries and honey dew stars for the accent.
• RED, WHITE & BERRY-MISU: Add a little water to blueberry and strawberry jam, dip ladyfingers in the jams and line them in a 9x13 glass baking dish. Start with a layer of strawberry-coated ladyfinger, then add the sweet mascarpone cream, followed by blueberry-coated ladyfingers then more cream. Finish with raspberries for the stripes and blueberries for the stars.
• STAR-SPANGLED WATERMELON CAKE: Cut watermelon into rounds and remove the skin. Place on a cake stand, then add whipped cream and fruit. Repeat until you have 4 layers of watermelon and top with additional cream, fruit, and honeydew stars.
• FLAG DOGS: Slice cheddar and jack cheese slices into thin strips, line them up in a pan to create stripes, take you're pre-grilled hot dogs and roll them in the cheese once it's melted. Place in a hot dog bun then stack on a serving dish to create the stripes of the American flag. Place a dish of purple potato salad in the upper left hand corner to act as the stars. Add cut out jack cheese stars for additional flare!

STAR-SPANGLED ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter two 9-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheets. Line each with parchment, leaving an overhang on two long sides; butter parchment. Whisk together flour and salt.
• In another bowl, whisk together butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk in flour mixture until smooth. Divide batter evenly between sheets; bake until dry to the touch, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks; let cool completely.
• Using a 1 1/2-inch star cutter, stamp out 12 evenly spaced stars (3 rows of 4, about 3 inches apart) from one cake; discard or reserve for snacking. Beat ice cream and sorbet separately until spreadable; spread ice cream over uncut cake in an even layer. Dollop sorbet over ice cream; swirl with the tip of a knife. Top with stamped cake, top-side up.
• Wrap in plastic (still in sheet); freeze at least 8 hours and up to 1 week. Transfer cake to a cutting board; cut into 12 sandwiches with a serrated knife. Serve immediately.
