I want something that I can make ahead and something that won't melt in the heat.

    Strawberry shortcake. Just keep the whip cream on ice until ready to serve.

    For a bridal shower I'm hosting in a couple of weeks, we're doing a fruit pizza bar.  Sugar cookies, the topping, and a variety of fruits for people to make their own.  You could do just regular fruit pizza, too.

    I am making a strawberry shortcake roll that has a layer of marscapone & whipped cream with a strawberry filling. Not sure how it would hold up in the heat. It's not hot here yet. 

    I am also going to do these https://www.singforyoursupperblog.com/2010/07/06/lemon-lime-sugar-cookie-truffles/

    I always think of strawberry or lemon desserts for Easter.

    You could do a strawberry cake or a lemon chiffon pie.

    Growing up we always had a coconut cake for Easter dessert.  Still my favorite.

    This is to.die.for!!!!!  

     

    • WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

    • HALF of an (8 ounce) package cream cheese
    • 1 tablespoon white sugar
    • 1 tablespoon cold milk
    • 1 cup peanut butter
    • 1 (8 ounce) container of cool whip
    • 1 (9 inch) oreo cookie crust (the pre-made ones from the store)
    • 2 (3.9 ounce) packages instant chocolate pudding mix
    • 2 cups cold milk
    • Whatever topping you would like to put on top of the pie to make it pretty & add a crunch to it (chocolate cookies crumbled up is what I did the last couple of times, but you could crush up any type of candy bar including pb cups, yummy)

    Directions

    1. In a large bowl, mix half of the block of cream cheese (discard the rest, or save for a later time), 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon milk and 1 cup of peanut butter until smooth. 
    2. Gently stir in 1 1/2 cups of cool whip.  Keep stirring until it is well blended and a light brown color (like peanut butter). 
    3. Spread mixture evenly on the bottom of pie crust.
    4. In a second bowl, stir pudding mix with 2 cups milk until thick. 
    5. Immediately stir in the remaining cool whip. 
    6. Spread pudding mixture over the peanut butter layer.
    7. Sprinkle your choice of topping on top....I do the chocolate cookies.  Throw them in a zip lock and crush them up & then sprinkle over the top.  You can do anything you want though, pb cups, etc.  The options are endless!  
    8. Last, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
