Red, White and Blue Dessert
I changed a recipe I found and ended up with this rich, fresh-tasting dessert. Decorated to resemble a flag, it's perfect for the Fourth of July or any other patriotic occasion. —Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

Red White and Blue dessert was perfect, delicious and the low carbs made having a large serving better than cake or pie, even better the next day, our household love it so much and not feeling overstuffed after barbecue.

I made this for a birthday party on memorial day. It was a hit. I did not have any almond extract, so I use 1 tsp. of vanilla. Will make it again for my next pitch--in dinner.

Made this for an afternoon pool party/bbq. Omitted the almond extract due to a nut allergy--added a touch more vanilla and used powdered sugar and added to the whipped cream vs. adding to cream cheese. Added raspberries to the strawberries and blue berries. Was a hit!
Can you make this the night before, or does it need to be made the day of?
Another Memorial Day and another request for this delicious and easy dessert! Fresh tasting and full of summer flavor. I use Neufchatel (low fat cream cheese, ok, just a little lower, but every little bit helps) and no difference in taste.
This is my summer go-to dessert! Everyone loves it, always a hit :) Thanks for a great recipe.
Yummy and very pretty cake in a trifle bowl. Also added pound cake to the layers
