Technically the first day of summer doesn't happen until June 21st. However in my book Memorial Day Weekend is the true start of summer. You get your first long weekend... and everyone starts to plan all of those BBQ parties.
I love to make desserts for the BBQ parties that we attend. Can you imagine that? I always think that cookies are great for a BBQ. They are easy to pack, they require no silverware, and everyone can sneak as many as they want.
I thought it would be fun to do a Red, White and Blue cookie to celebrate Memorial day this weekend. However i was a little stumped on how to accomplish this without just defaulting to sprinkles or candy. Although these M&M cookies I made for last years Fourth of July are delicious!
So anyway I was thinking about what was red and blue... and I instantly went to raspberries, strawberries and blueberries.... Then I remembered these raspberry cheesecake cookies that I made with muffin mix.... So I decided to try mixing raspberry and blueberry muffin mix to see if they would be a great idea for a Red, White, and Blue cookie.
They not only turned out but they were delicious. So if you are looking for a great easy cookie idea for your BBQ this weekend these are guaranteed to be a hit.
