Star-Spangled Shortcake

Amy WileyComment

This is an easy dessert that just hits the spot on a summer evening.  It's more of an assembly than a recipe.  Grab a spoon and dig into Star-Spangled Shortcake.

To make this oh-so-patriotic treat, you'll just need berries, pre-made pound cake or angel food cake, heavy whipping cream (and a little powdered sugar) and sprinkles.

Whip up the cream with a little powdered sugar to sweeten.

Cut your pound cake up into cubes and add to your serving glasses or dishes.

Add a nice mix of red and blue berries.  I mean... it's pretty much just a healthy snack, right?
